Cobb 2.5" 2-Bolt Exhaust Gasket for 2002-2021 Subaru WRX/STI & Mitsubishi Evo
The Cobb UNI-001-253 2.5" 2-bolt exhaust gasket delivers a multi-layer stainless steel seal for 2.5" exhaust joints on Subaru WRX, STI, Forester XT, Legacy GT, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, and universal applications. Raised sealing beads crush under torque for a tight, leak-free connection that holds up in performance setups. This direct replacement fixes worn or damaged gaskets in downpipe-to-catback and turbo outlet connections.
