Meinikie put on some 3 dollar donut gasket and I burned right through it. in about 5 months. I'm guessing this car, given the exhaust heat, would take a special gasket. Am I right? What should I be using besides my warranty??

make sure you use factory type metal looking gaskets not paper gaskets. Also you may want to double them up incase you have a warped flange.
