Use wellseal on either side of the gasket. Its the best stuff by far.

Hmm, cant see how it makes it worse to seal less you use chep shite, i used it (cant mind the make, but it's blue! ) and it selaed perfectly first time with new gasket! (my old pump leaked because some punk used only selant and no gasket, so i bought a new pump thinking mine was fecked

I have a mate running one - he freed up power with it. It also runs on after shutdown - saving engine and turbo.

He has some controllers going spare he got a batch off ebay australia IIRC.

A good idea - but with a life of only 4,000h it's a bit pricey for a daily driver.
