I recently bought a 1983 245 Turbo to be my commuter car (as opposed to my 1963 544). I took it to the mechanic for inspection and they told me I have an exhaust leak at the turbo to exhaust pipe connection. The mechanic thought I would just need a new gasket. Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can figure out specifically which gasket? Another peice of info: I know my car had a factory upgrade because there was a faulty design with the turbo. Does this mean a specific gasket that might not be mentioned in a service manual? Thank you for any help.
Also, does anyone know about how long this job should take?
