Turbo dump pipe studs.

Post by phippsy »

I was checking my turbo today and noticed the 3 of the 4 studs that join the turbo to the dump pipe were gone and is only being held roughly in place by the bottom stud/nut.
I was going to replace the stud/nut with bolts and am wondering if it is a bad idea to use locktite or something like that on the cast housing of the turbo so it mightn't happen again.
