Why Use An Exoracing T3 Turbocharger Gasket?

A leaking or blown turbo gasket can let exhaust gas escape before it reaches the turbine. This can cause slower spool, reduced boost response, loss of power, unwanted noise and repeated gasket failure if the root cause is not fixed.

The Exoracing T3 turbocharger gasket is made to sit between a T3 turbo and manifold flange, creating a reliable seal when fitted to clean, flat mating surfaces. It is a useful replacement whenever the turbo is removed, the manifold is changed, or an old gasket has started leaking.

Choose the 304 stainless steel version for most installations where the flanges are flat and in good condition. Choose the aluminium composite version if you need the thicker 2mm gasket or have very slight surface imperfections, while still checking that the flanges are not warped.

If your previous gasket has blown out, do not just fit a new gasket and hope for the best. Check both mating faces with a straight edge and resurface the turbo or manifold flange if needed.

Which Material Should I Choose?

• 304 Stainless Steel: best for most flat, correctly surfaced T3 turbo to manifold flanges. Thickness: 0.5mm.
• Aluminium Composite: useful when a slightly thicker gasket is required or when the flange has very minor imperfections. Thickness: 2mm.

Installation Guide:

Professional installation is recommended if you are not confident working around turbocharger, oil, coolant or exhaust components.

1. Allow the vehicle to cool fully before working around the turbocharger.
2. Remove any parts needed to access the turbo to manifold flange, including oil, coolant or intake parts if required.
3. Remove the turbo flange nuts or bolts and take out the old gasket.
4. Clean both mating faces and check them with a straight edge. If either flange is warped, resurface it before fitting the new gasket.
5. Fit the new Exoracing T3 turbocharger gasket in the correct orientation.
6. Reinstall the turbo hardware and torque to the manufacturer’s specification.
7. Run the car through heat cycles and recheck for leaks, loose hardware or boost loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit my turbo?

This gasket is for T3 turbo to manifold flanges. Check your flange type and bolt-centre measurements before ordering. The bolt centres are 85mm horizontally and 44mm vertically.

Should I choose stainless steel or aluminium composite?

Choose stainless steel for most flat, correctly surfaced flanges. Choose aluminium composite if you need the thicker 2mm gasket or have very slight surface imperfections. Warped flanges should be resurfaced before fitting any new gasket.

Will this fix a boost leak?

It can fix a leak caused by a worn, split or blown T3 turbo gasket, but only if the mating flanges are clean, flat and correctly tightened. If the flange is warped, the new gasket may fail again.

When should I replace this gasket?

Replace it whenever the T3 turbo is removed, when changing the manifold, or when you see signs of exhaust gas leakage around the turbo to manifold flange.

Does it include bolts or nuts?

No. This listing includes the T3 turbocharger gasket and Exoracing lifetime warranty. Reuse suitable existing hardware only if it is in good condition, or replace hardware where needed.

Notes:

• Check the gasket shape and bolt-centre measurements before ordering.
• Make sure both turbo and manifold mating faces are clean and flat.
• Resurface warped flanges before fitting a new gasket.
• Tighten hardware to the vehicle or turbo/manifold manufacturer’s specification.
• Professional installation is recommended.
