I don't run a turbo-manifold gasket on my KA. It's only been that way for about a month of daily driving.
My SR has (what I assume is) the original gasket with a factory manifold. I've reinstalled it twice. If I need to remove the turbo again any time soon, I'm leaving the gasket off.

do you realize how dumb you sound?
anywho OP, I had the same issue when I was bottom mount, I was running a aftermarket downpipe, test pipe, and cat-back. I didnt have the flex jont anywhere in the system so all the vibrations etc put all the strain on the oem nuts and studs. I doubled nut'd and used lock tite on the studs which seemed to work the best.
