I'm wondering where, besides subaruparts.com, I can buy the donut gasket that goes between the WRX catalytic converter and the midpipe. I put on my aftermarket exhaust system and there is a massive leak at the connection of those two pipes.

No one wants to sell me their donut gasket, do they?

Thank you!

I never knew they sold the extra exhaust parts...it's for a Stromung exhaust, I think the piping is 2.5", mates to Stromung 3rd cat pipe.

Hey if you get a new donut gasket, let me know if it works. I have the same setup & problem,
mine leaked so bad i took it off.

Right now it leaks a lot when you put your hand up to the connection in pipes. I don't remember it being this leaky last time it was on the car, but maybe I didn't notice last time as it is quite loud. Subaruparts.com sells it for 5 bucks plus 8 bucks shipping (more than the item, go figure). i'm going to try the subaru dealership and see if i can save on shipping and get it that day.

FYI it cost 24.83 each on subaruparts.com It will cost you 50 buck in subaru dealer.

The part number is 44022AA122

50 bucks?! I went on the subaruparts website and I thought I found the right one for 5.52, I think it was 44284A. Have you bought one from them before to verify the price is correct?

What else could be the solution to my problem? Is it possible to use some other type of gasket to plug up the leak? It drives fine, so I'm afraid I'm going to be leaving it like it is for a while at least until I find a solution

I just went back to the website...the part you noted is listed at less money (yay!) at 24.83 and indeed that is the correct one.
