My Backyardigan suggested high temp silicon also.  The position of the pipe welded onto the flange is a little off making a good seal questionable with the metal gasket although it must have passed QC at the factory.  I didn't think high temp silicone would hold up to the exhaust temperature coming out of the turbo since it's rated at 650º-700ºF.  What is the flexible exhaust hose made of?  I'm wondering if I should change it while I'm in there?  I attached a photo of the exhaust blankets.

In case anyone hadn't heard of a Backyardigan
