Finally getting everything together to boost and want to replace the bolts on some pieces...I've been searching around and can't find where to get the turbo to downpipe bolts ....I wouldnt think going to a hardware store and just grabbing some 8x1.25 bolts would be the right thing to do.....any suggestions??

 

on my turbo gsr i just use local store bolt on the turbo manifold to hotside turbo. but my down pipes is v-band. and when you said some place which place do you mean?

 

Keep in mind your average hardware store bolts aren't designed for the heat turbos operate at.

I'd suggest Stage 8 or ARP for bolts. And if you're not using Stage 8 lockers use Nord-Lock washers.

 

So where does he get Stage 8 bolts and/or Nord-Lock washers

what are you guys ordering for the turbo manifold to block?


if i am correct, i will need part #'s 3950 and 3902 for turbo to manifold

 

ARP do some good head studs for manifold to head. I just use the ARP studs and new Honda supplied skirted nuts.

 

Nice. Thanks for the link. I will be using this also.

 

I just remembered that I didn't throw any anti-seize on my ARP exhaust manifold studs. Think that'll be an issue if I need to remove them?

 

I saw some stage 8 bolts at lowes, not sure if that means they are really "stage 8" though...
