exhaust leak

[vinnie mack]

damn like my turbo is leaking noowww the exhaust. My question is, is the exhaust able to be purchased at any parts counter or do I have to go through Mazda considering it's Racing Beat.

It's leaking in the rear section before the muffler

Is it just the gasket or did you manage to break it somewhere. Hopefully it's just a gasket you can get those at most auto parts stores and muffler shops.

If its the gasket, just replace that. If it is the pipe or muffler, see if you can have a muffler shop weld the leak closed.

I had a leak and yeah, I got my gasket from autozone. I've got a question though, would using 2 gasket be better then one? or would it be worse? Also, when I did mine, I got some of that gasket on a tube and put in around the the rim of the piping and so far its working nicely.

If you managed to break the whole thing and just want a new one just pick up the vibrant j pipe back exhaust! (http://mazda3online.web.aplus.net/product_info.php?cPath=21_32_166&products_id=399)
