I think I have a leaky gasket too...I've tried to get some soapy water up there to see, just too hard of an area to see all angles.

Did you install new gaskets X4 ? Or do you think there possibly loose,might need to re-torque those bolts up,here's a pic of mine up top,try to zoom in.  Z

Didn't do the 4x deal...I've checked the bolts countless times also. Thinking I need to try the 4 to be honest.

None, that I can see...but I can only see 50-60% of the area. I swear it sounds like a leak, since the day I put them on...

No rough idle, but it has a sound of air coming from the exaust system I swear.

Weird thing is...I ran a 12.42 with just a 3bar tune on stock everything else.

Added all the other goodies, in the range of 4k cost...gained less than a tenth?

Weird it is

Its a tough call,sometimes these DP need double gaskets depending on exact fitment and so on,need to grab some grub.  Z

Great video! You can get $25k off of a Z28 tomorrow though (Black Friday!) That might be worth it!

for the price of both of those, I would rather buy a new/slightly used 2016 z06, for just a slightly more.
