Mmm, I'm having an issue with a Felpro SC outlet gasket right now leaving a gap between the wastegate and two cavities in the underside of the SC. Had the same problem with the old gasket, which I believe was an OEM gasket, but Bill checked out a spare OEM gasket and it was fine.

Frank is out of town again and asked me to order these parts. However, when I called the dealership they now priced out the throttle body gasket at $62.25 rather than the original $7.90 they quoted me. Am I missing something? I believe one of these quotes is incorrect and I assume it'* the higher one since willwren said $7.90 was a good price. Was it too good a price?
Your input would be really appreciated since I'd like to pick up the parts later today if possible.

i don't know if it'* any different from the series 1 to series 2, but when i went to order my valve cover gaskets, they told me 20-30 bucks for a 3.8 */c, then i had him double check that it was for a supercharged 3.8 and the guy was like oh... and it ended up beign like 60 bucks for the pair, and they were fel-pros.

Cathy, I can buy 10 of them for that price (I get good pricing). If you pay over 15, they're hosing you. It'* a paper filter. Not gold-plated.
vptruman, there is no difference in valve covers or gaskets between supercharged an non-supercharged 3800'* of the same gen.
