This doesn't seem normal to me. Am I to assume that there is also exhaust fumes leaking from those areas too? I was tempted to crawl under there today and try to tighten both areas but I wanted to get everyone's advice first. I'd especially like to hear from those that have this catback installed.

Help wanted!
Hahahahahahahaha.

I just entered this section to see if anyone had the part number for the "donut" seal for that joint! Yes, I have had a drip on startup since I had it installed. I think re-using the seal was a mistake in my case. It may swell with heat, but I don't like it.

Tom, can you help?
