OK, the fact is they didn't seal well the last time. I saw the exhaust marks blowing between the gasket and the flange. I just already cleaned it off so you didn't see it. So, I will try what you suggest. I want a better seal if at all possible. My 1st inspection is coming up in just over a year and if Thailand deems my system which I did modify improper or unfit after all their testing, I'll be expected to import an entirely new stock exhaust system, probably 10K to ship it here and import duties. I know not everybody understands what it takes to have a "gray" market car legal in Thailand. So, I appreciate your suggestion.
