THIS is why you dont use RTV

I have had no issues with red RTV when it comes to sealing exhaust flanges, even on boosted cars where the exhaust back pressure before the turbo can reach 20+psi.

I have had no issues with red RTV when it comes to sealing exhaust flanges, even on boosted cars where the exhaust back pressure before the turbo can reach 20+psi. I do however let it sit overnight every time I use it. I think this is very important.

With the turbo kits I use Berk Technologies gaskets, rated to 2000 deg F. These have worked great when installed properly.
