you need the gasket and 2 nuts that hold the y pipe together, and thats it. unless you have an early 93 thats never been apart before, they switched from paper to reusable metal gaskets.

I ordered my y-pipe from the rx7store, and it came with one gasket and the 2 nuts. I also needed to order 2 more gaskets because mine had the non-reusable paper kind (they broke into pieces when I took the turbo pipes off).



Part number for the gaskets is N3A1-13-712. They were $4.08 each at Mazdaformance.com, and they had about a dozen in stock.



Good luck.

Most y pipes come with the two bolts that hold the two units together and the gasket to boot. Which wll be metal.

Make sure to check the rubber O-ring on the secondary side. (Rear of the Y-pipe) Mine got pinched upon re-installation and caused a boost leak.
