06_legacygt Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 excited to be going stage 2 tomorrow with a catless CNT downpipe and a Perrin TMIC. my only problem is that the TMIC i bought used is missing the O-ring I did some reading on that o-ring melting anyway so i was thinking of an alternitive and an idea i saw on the outback forum to use a Mr. Gasket part # 738G http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/Mr-Gasket-Thermostat-Gasket-Performance/_/N-5yc1s?itemIdentifier=328712 Anyone use one of these as a replacement? thinking about trying it. its made out of aluminum and silicone style gasket, it should seal up nicely 2006 Legacy GT 5EAT Perrin UP, SPT CAI, OBXR CBE, Catless DP, Perrin TMIC, Stage 2 AP tune Soon after BNR 16G, Infamous Tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
