Replacing Turbo

[monkeymsp]

Vibration has a way of working bolts loose... it used to be the absolute norm for header bolts to need periodic re-torquing.

Also dissimilar metals and extreme heating/cooling cycles can cause them to work their way loose.

Yeah, it's flashed. I avoid both Durham and Al Smith in Raleigh because they both have questionable reputations.

you will always smell coolant from the MSP. especially when driven hard. It concenred me @ firsat, but the coolant level have not gone down for me @ all. I traced ot to fumes coming out of the overflow pipe. now if your coolant level is slowly dropping then that is a different story...
