So I bought PPE headers from a CL member and he failed to send gaskets even though he said he did

Anyone know if:

1. Stock gaskets can be reused in this pinch of a situation?
2. New stock gaskets from Lexus can be used if a local dealer has them?
3. PPE will sell me these? (surely they will)

I'm really hoping for #1 to be true, since I was supposed to have them installed tomorrow.

Thanks for the help guys.

I just finished the header install and I bought new gaskets from NAPA auto parts.
Different from OEM but the headers are in.

I say get new ones. Toyota sell them also beside Lexus dealers. But you might need the o2 simulator if you start throwing cat efficiency codes.

thanks guys, shop told me they can use stock gaskets. I just got called that the install in done too took them <2.5 hours!

Now the ultimate test... waiting to see if any CEL's pop up... haha.

I recommend getting a new ones because i was in the same boat as you when i got my ppe header. reasoning being is because you don't want the headers to leak due to bad gaskets. plus it only cost me 25 dollar to get new ones so why take the risk. Anyways your going to love ur setup with joez exhaust and pep header. I have the same setup .
