turbo swap...new gaskets? or hope fo the best?

[andyg plym]

im doing my engine mount tomorrow,and i know its going to be great fun....not!
I also have a spare turbo im going to fit at some point (straight kkk24 swap) and reckon i should make life easier for myself by removing turbo,doing mount,then fitting new turbo.
As ive only just come up with this cunning plan shall i do the above mentioned and re-use the old gaskets,or are they likely to be fooked?
the turbo going in is mint,ie newish and new braided pipes

well

lets just say, new gaskets for shure,,

If you've got them then it'll all go smoothly...

I replaced all of mine when I did the head gasket and some were in better condition that others. Thankfully the EM gasket seems to be pretty resiliant but the WG and turbo to DP gaskets were shagged.

yeah when i took the engine out of mine the turbo to d/pipe and w/gate to d/pipe gaskets were toast

******,i wish these parts were readily available,i bet gsf doesnt do them?

[Rusty]

VAG Parts or Quattro Corner should be able to help, as would most Audi tuners or perhaps Audiman Tom or All Audi... All available with next day delivery of course.
