Default Turbo blow

I have a blow where the turbo meets the exh man on a 3 door cosworth so what is the best method to seal it?

yeah been on it for a good while now, i used the cometic one before and they just keep blowing, but worth getting the faces skimmed to make sure both are dead flat, that way you might not even need the gasket. but try one 1st see how you get on
