Loctite isn't going to do much in that area, it's way beyond the heat range to work.

That's what I figured about the loctite, but I don't think it will hurt lol. Found an oem multi layer flange gasket at FRSport I'll add aswell.
Is there a specific way to bend the locking tabs? I used a flat head and rubber hammer, it sure didn't look pretty lol

Try your stock manifold...

I got it from huffandpuff00, it looks legit to me. But I'll put the stock back on

use the oem gasket on fr sport for the turbo-mani

Got it.
