Not only are the up pipes leaking, but the up pipe collector isn't fully seated flush with the turbo. There's soot all over the center section, and up pipe clamp.

In person it seems to be seated but I planned on removing it for a blank pedestal anyway so no biggie. Can't wait for all my new parts to arrive. Got coffin style toolbox for it today and sold my crew cab flatbed.but kept the batteries led 3rd brake my gauges and my 6637 filter so I can take this pos honda civic looking junk off the previous owner installed.

For your reinstall, Clamp the new Y pipe to the turbo before you put it back in. You can be sure that the Y is aligned and seated correctly and not have to fight that clamp.

FWIW theres a set of used International pipes in the for sale section for $100. Can get the gaskets for like $5 and be good as new.

Many have been happy with the Dorman set though.
