Re: downpipe probs
Go to qwick fit, say your exhaust is blowing... they might use sealent
its worth it until u can get it sorted correctly.
Mine was blowing a little near the gasket, qwick fit did it for free and its been fine for 6 months

cheers dude
do you mean like seal the rim????
as in they don`t remove the pipe just go along the joint with sealant

Or just get a tube of exhaust gunk from halfords (the expandy stuff), pop the joint apart, apply a little bead of it, making sure it won't squish 'into' the exhaust.. Do up, drive, seal 
(I wouldn't use this stuff 'upstream' of the turbo, but as long as we're talking downpipe->exhaust joint, it'll be fine)
Just don't leave it in your toolbox if your toolbox gets hot, or the tube explodes and.. well.. it's quite messy
