I've got my turbo off at present and noticed when I was disassembling that two of the turbo to manifold bolts were loose. It's a LoveFab Minime and GT3071R btw.

They are imperial spec bolts so I have no way of measuring them. Does anyone know the specs and the part number I should order from Stage 8?

While I can't help you out on the bolt dimensions, I can vouch for Stage8 bolts.

I use them on my s2k turbo setup, exhaust and intake manifold. They're a pain to install/remove, but that's nothing compared to the hassle of losing a cheap bolt and the damage that can do.

Yay!

Mad props to Glenn Thompson who went to special effort and put up with my constant nagging to get them to me on time.

Safety wire is dirt cheap and pretty much guaranteed to work. We safety wire turbo to manifold bolts on everything we do since them coming loose is such a common problem.
