blowing exhaust gaskets

my racingbeat midpipe keeps blowing out the exhaust gasket at the manifold.... i have replaced it 2 times in the last 3 weeks... it will seal up for about 4-5 days then begin leaking again.... has anyone had this issue? is there a different way to seal it up... like just a regular flange style gasket?

Had a similar issue with my greddy manifold and mid pipe. Ended up solving it with a big ol sandwich gasket that compressed down a good inch.
