Installing New ypipe - Ultra Copper or no?

[Powder Keg]

Installing new ypipe on PGM8T and was wondering if guys are using a bead of gasket maker (like ultra copper ATV) or are you just using the factory gaskets.

Thanks in advance

I always use ultra copper on the old gaskets, never had problem and never had any leaks.

Mciver - Do you apply ultra copper directly on the gasket or around it? Thanks for the help.

I get everything nice and clean including the old gaskets then put some on the both sides of the gasket and slip everything together.

X2. Thin coat on both sides.

Anyone use Ultra Black or does it need to be Ultra Copper?

Like mentioned above light coating on both sides of gasket. I just use high heat red.

I have always been told to remove all gasket and silicone as if it brakes apart you do not want it going through your turbo?? Is that wrong?
