Default Comptech Exhaust/test pipe Intall questions

Just recently picked up a used comptech exhaust with test pipe from a friend (this is 147mphalldays old car).

Questions on my install:

The gaskets between midpipe and mufflers, can those be had locally, or do i have to order them through comptech. Alternatively, are they reusable?

There was what looked like additional bungs that the 02 sensor had on it. I didnt pick these up, and now that i think of it, they probably prevent it from coding...correct?

if the gasket is in good condition u can reuse em, i did and its fine. You can just get a gasket locally at pep boys or autozone wherever just get the right size. The test pipe has the bung for the anit fouler to stop it from throwing a CEL.

I am going to try and get some new bolts as the old ones look, well replacement wouldnt hurt is all i will say. The gasket I guess I will play by ear if it is needed.

Good luck with this. I tried at all of my local parts palces and NO ONE had the "figure 8" gasket needed. I just went without one.

As for the test pipe, the antifould trick has worked just fine for me.
