6.5 downpipe/crossover pipe

[Jochen Woern]

Just a quick question out of curiosity:

There are two (2) donut style seals that mount between exhaust manifold and cross over pipe.

- While I installed my 4" inch Pinnacle Exhaust System, I did NOT notice a seal/donut between turbo and downpipe while removing the stock downpipe, I therefore installed the new Pinnacle downpipe directly WITHOUT any seal or donut to the turbo and connected it with the V-Clamp.

Did I forget anything, is there a seal or donut in this location as well which I may have forgotten?

If I forgot it, should I take the downpipe off again and put the seal and/or donut in between? What is the worst that can happen?

Thanks in advance.

You are good. No seal in there. Just downpipe to turbo.

Did you have trouble with the install of the exhaust system?

I have the Pinnacle kit for my 96 GMC K2500 ExCab. I am having problems with the hangers. I think the torch and welder are in it's near future.

Thanks very much.

I did not have any trouble with the install of the exhaust. However, I do agree that the hangers could be better located. Considering that the Banks system would cost me 650 bucks and I paid 260 instead, I am VERY happy with the Pinnacle system.

My hangers still connected to my satisfaction WITHOUT torch and welder. If anything ever will come of the hangers, I still can get the old torch and welder out at a later time, right?

Good day.
