alex0856 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Has anyone ever replaced these gaskets between the turbo and BPV? I'm having a hell of a time finding them for my Perrin TMIC. I suspect I have a boost leak and those are my best guesses considering I've replaced or upgraded just about every damn hose on the car. The turbo inlets and outlets are fine. I've noticed the last few times I've removed my TMIC that the usual oil blow-by you see in your intercooler has been working its way past the gasket on the turbo side. I'm going to try some high temp gasket maker for now but I'd prefer a more permanent solution if anyone has any thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awfulwaffle Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I use a Mr. Gasket 738G thermostat gasket at the turbo interface and the OEM ring with RTV at the BPV on my Perrin knock-off TMIC and have never had a leak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
