Hi all,

anyone have any tips for getting the joint in the exhaust to seal up? I'm having a hell of a time.

I'm speaking of the joint between the downpipe/cat pipe and the rear section of the exhaust. The joint is right in the center of the car.

I had it apart and back together 10 times this weekend and can't seem to get it to seal up and not leak. I hate the 'fart' noise and also I think it's dangerous to have exhaust gas where it may more easily get in to the cabin (with open doors, etc)
