KOOKS catted Y!! I finally recieved my catted Y-pipe from kooks so hopefully i will be able to install my headers this weekend. What do you guys think about the flanges that come with the kooks y-pipe? are they good? or should i use something else? THANKS!!!
I assume you mean the flange gaskets. They should be black Percy's Carbon Seal gaskets, which are very nice. 
Get some good pics of what they look like installed! I also recommend you install all the header bolts, but leave them almost backed out. You'll need to swing them out to get the y-pipe slipped into itself and installed.

I used the 3 clamps that came all taped together with the Kooks. Works fine with no leaks. If you want to be extra cautious, wrap some aluminum foil around the joint before you put the clamp on. The clamps you have are fine though.
