is there still the graphite gasket/seal in there? I could see that happening if that was missing.
Graphite! When I purchased it only have the exhaust and the bracket that connects to foot pegs
Which M4 exhaust are you talking about? I thought they all attached straight to the header?
I dont see any graphit does this come the stock exhaust or from the m4 exhaust
If i am not mistaken i it connects to the headers thats what i meant. Lol im so noob
Which slip on they make like 3...

GP , Street Slayer, and standard mount...
The gp exhaust
It came from 2013 exhaust do u think that could be the problem the pipping from 2013 is diff from 2014
My last resort will be the thermo shield i am goong to wrap it inside so it will be tight enough from the inside i dont know it thats a good idea.
the graphite is a little sleeve that goes over the slip on, but inside the header.

its stock between the header and prechamber. when you take the prechamber out, it might come out with it.


if where the clamp is, clamps the header straight to the slip on, metal to metal, with no graphite gasket in between, i could see it rattling loose, as well as leaking

edit. did a quick search on here to see if i could find a pic of it, came across this thread. the link to ebay shows what im talking about clearly

not sure if that size would work for you.. but, if you remember seeing or have the old one, it will still work if it hasnt been destroyed.

There should be an exhaust gasket that comes off. My was inside of my prechamber when I installed my link pipe and had to remove it to place onto my new exhaust. It will look something like the picture in the link below. Check your prechamber to see if it was left in there.

does anyone know how to exrtract the broken nuts? half of it is stock from the hole.
Broken bolt you mean?

If you can grab it with a vicegrip.. Try that.

If not, go to an auto parts store and buy a stud extractor. You drill a hole in the broken bolt. And hit the extractor into the hole and twist out
