Hi all
Do you fit exhaust manifold and cat pipe gaskets dry, or is a jointing compound used?
(i have plenty of no more nails and gripfill. :shock: )

AsSteve said on P5's you can put some exhaust seal paste in the joint but you don't or at least shoudn't need to and that makes seperation and reuse much more difficult
