well when i bought my midpipe from racing beat they sent me a gasket that connected to the headers. I eventually ordered a donut gasket from racing beat that connected the midpipe to the exhaust. it was the only thing that sealed up my exhaust leak. you can see if your old gaskets work if you want to save money

Well, most people in Miami that own this car are just plain boring. Most bought it cause it's good looking and thats it. Very few care about being in a group.

Greetings from Miami. I live in Coconut Grove but I'm totally down for an evening run/regular meetup kind of thing. Hit me up. Would dig getting back into a group like I did with my 7 when I still lived in NY.

And PS, I concur with the whole boring/lazy thing with what seems like most Miami 8 owners. Anytime I see one, I give a honk or a wave, and they just ignore me or roll their eyes. WTF man? Am I the only guy that knows the rotary wave?

I'm trying to sell some strakes now. If I can sell them, I'll take the piano black accents! But if someone else comes with money in hand (and stock parts) don't wait on me. Lol
