I couldn't see the leak but I could definately hear it. Especially on cold starts.

The gaskets were totally gone, one of them came out in 2 pieces. I ended up just using the gaskets that Berk have which come with the cats. (I didn't use them initially because I didn't get them so we put in some temp gaskets in their place). These gaskets should hold up now. They aren't the thick metallic type but they are good enough.

Can you hear a ticking sound? or if you accelerate hard do you hear a rough noise coming from the headers/HFC area? Because after I fixed the gaskets I couldn't believe how much quieter the exhaust was lol sounds so much cleaner and better now!
