    Hello question for those who installed the trd exhaust on there tacoma. I installed a trd exhaust on my tacoma but I have a good size gap between the exhaust flange and the y-pipe flanged pictures are attached below. Brand new gasket was installed and both 14mm bolts are tight. I dont have any exhaust leaks yet. I sprayed soap around the flange and gently shoved a rag in the tip to see if any bubbles and none. But do you folks have the same gap or any gap?

    thanks

    You could hit it with some RTV just to be sure, but you’d be able to hear it if you had a gap.

    Looks perfect. If flanges touched, that would mean inside may not. Then you would possibly have a leak. Inner is making contact, that's what you want.
