you can re-use the stock one, it 'should' reseal, i ordered a replacement one for mine, but the old one looked just as good as the new one

I just installed my Vibrant header-back exhaust 2 days ago and re-used the stock gasket. It was in excellent shape but the holes in the stock gasket were a little smaller then the ones on the vibrant header...this may restrict a little bit of air flow? I like the look of the exhaust and the distinct idle sound of the car, however when on the throtle, it seems a little to loud sometimes. I will have a video and some pics soon.

correct the holes are smaller, but it don't matter because the holes on the back of the engine are the same size as the ones on the gasket

Is this vibrant header fit all the cobalt model?
