Just a quick question. Are the exhaust gaskets metal? Want to take off the exhaust and hollow the cats as a temporary sedative for my boost addiction before I get real exhaust, and I want to know if I can re-use the gaskets.

nope

The gaskets that are after the turbo aren't metal or reusable? Wow, that's surprising. But thanks for letting me know before I took it off.

The gasket from the turbo to the upper turbo pipe may be okay... but the rest of mine you were not able to replace. If you plan on gutting the cat you should only need two gaskets.... from the cat-> b-pipe and the b-pipe->exhaust.
