Turbo And Exhaust Torque Settings

[Industry07]

Hi there,

Im expecting my turbo back from rebuild and porting soon so im just unsure if you torque the turbo manifold bolts as well as the exhaust manifold bolts,

If so how much,

I think the exhaust manifold bolts are 27nm.

Any help would be appreciated.

Correct on the manifold bolts.

The turbo to manifold studs are 27nm and the nuts are 55nm.

The dump pipe to turbo studs are 15nm and the nuts are 25nm.

What About the exhaust manifold to the head?

[Adam]

You've got that in your first post.

Manifold to head bolts are actually 40nm for the turbo. 27nm is for NA.

Where did you get the 40nm from?

[arm79]

The factory BF manual and factory Territory supplement manual.

Is that page from a BA manual?

I've never seen a factory manual that lists the setting as 27nm.

For the FG's it's 50 to 55nm, yet still 27nm for NA.

yeah this is for a BA

[arm79]

mmm... Weird.

I had a friend who worked at Ford show me the BA manual at the time, and it said 40nm.

Then I got a copy of the BF and it said 40nm too.

Either there has been revisions in the document, or misprints along the way.
