I am going to swap back to the ceramic cat. to see the performance difference between the ss cat.

I replaced the gasket per instructions and it seems loose in the cat holder, I get it will expand some.

Question is... do you wrap the gasket twice around the outside of the ceramic cat or just once? It looks like in the schematic that it only goes around once, but there is plenty of wiggle room in the cat holder that way.

I noticed that my ss cat only had one wrap of interam gasket on it for frame of reference if anyone is replacing their gasket.
 
Pretty sure it's wrapped around just once but it looks like there are 3 or 4 layers between the two cats before it wraps around the whole thing. Also wrap it with some regular masking tape to hold it all together.
 
Thanks Todd .

The middle is doubled up according to the diagram. Looking forward to firing it up again.
