blown out gasket between y pipe and cat

Your original gasket inside pipe diameter looks smaller than the new gasket, did you measure them?

Yup the new gasket diameter measures just right with the pipe, the old one was my 2nd gasket that I had from the other shop and yes it was smaller that is why probably it got busted easily. The new one is only bigger at the bolt bracket.

But I think I got it under control leak is gone. Exhaust is quiet from under my seat and back to deep exhaust note from the back end.
