Default Downpipe Doughnut Gasket???

I got the treadstone kit for my 07, as some of you know I had to take it apart cause of the tranny but when I did the doughnut gasket was cracked. It's not the same as the oem on the original downpipe as this one for the kit was a little thicker. does anybody know anywhere to get one of these or no? I tried a bunch of auto parts stores which led me to the dealership and they dont have any of what im looking for. I found one of these gaskets on extremepsi.com but the gasket is for an evo, just wondering if it would fit or not. if anybody has any ideas i would really appreciate it. thanks

I also have a Treadstone kit and had gassket leaking problems multiple times. I had my local exhaust shop put it on the lift and use a gasket from a Dodge Neon for mine and have had no leaks yet at all. Its considerably thicker and I think allows for a bit more movement without bustin a leak. Might try it. He used a sleeve from the inside of the s-pipe that the neon gasket was placed on. Then placed the sleeve inside the s-pipe and the sleeve keeps the new gasket centered well while bolting it back together. Do know how good of a fix this is but it worked for me as I was annoyed at fixing exhaust leaks once a week.
