Turbo gaskets?

I've been looking for a gasket for the turbine outlet of my 60-1HiFi turbo, and can't find anyone that sells them. Do you think I can make one out of copper? I've got some lying around.

do you mean where your downpipe attaches?

If so...no need for a gasket. Ultra Red silicone is your friend

No problem....the ultra red or copper works good. Just put on enough so that when you tighten down the bolts it oozes out a little. Then start it up, you'll have some leaks at first but usually after running for a bit it'll harden up from the carbon and you'll be good
