There is no gasket kit you can buy with all the gaskets you need. You have to buy each one individually.

theres somthing leaking from my up-pipe are i think its coming from my up pipe its hard to see. what could leak out of it its kinda dirty dunno if its oil and coolant are maybe its gas coming from some where else and geting dirty. im just hoping its not a head gasket this sucks. somthing always hapening to my car im hoping just up-pipe.

also i have up-pipe gasket and down pipe gasket should i use any type of sealer.

Injectors are a pain to seat.

No sealer needed. Check the header to up-pipe gasket while you're in there. I've seen a few of them go.

There is a turbo coolant line by the passanger heads. Mine blew on me, yours may just be a small leak dripping onto your up-pipe.

Last thing is the turbo oil return line. Mine had those worthless butterfly don't do anything pcv hose "clamps" and would leak enough oil to cover everything in that area with oil. I added real hose clamps while the engine was out and was able to get to them again when the downpipe was off.
