what gaskets are you all using for your TRD Header and Catback? I picked up some donut gaskets for it which i think is what it uses but still sounds like a got some leaks somewhere.

I used a brand new oem donut/cat gasket on my trd manifold-to-dp connection and it doesn't show any signs of leaks (soot, etc.). A new gasket properly centered - which can be tedious, especially on car - is key since they're crush type.

The dp-to-cat union is a pita if you're using the trd unit with the stock catalytic converter. It's because the trd dp outlet has a flat style flange and the oem cat has a donut style flange which don't work well together. I've been using a flat flange gasket and it leaks :( .
