Do you need to use any type of sealant when fitting an exhaust after cutting off the stock one. Or will the pipe self seal with all the crap in it??

Asked and answered, do a search on silicon & or sealent for your answers.

or let a nice draughty breeze blow through for plenty of back fires if that is your desire.

If not, cheapest bathroom selant will do I believe.

Your better off using gasket sealant I used the Blue one, When everything is assembled you remove the exess with paint thinners!
