Quick question Guys an Girls,

I've blown loose the turbo bolts to the manifold for the second time since I bought my BA ute. (6 months)

Last time I'd snapped 3 of them.

I can see it's a pretty common problem with these Bad Boys an I'll be getting some Anchorlox to sort the issue ASAP. ($120 for the 5 from what I can see)

What I wanted to know was how much damage can I cause to my engine an turbo by flooring it while its leaking air?

I've been babying it for the past week to an from work, until I can get it fixed, but I couldn't help myself an played up pretty bad tonight when it was hot. What type of damage can it cause?

Wheres the best place to get the anchorlox an is that the best way of solving the problem?

Cheers Pete

not the real common spot to have issues unless the face of the dump is warped which is very common with lots of aftermarket dump pipes.

Get a new gasket as well

I had the problem from turbo to dump and turbo to manifold also ... Being my car was so low it shook the turbo off the engine when I was hitting bumps... I got a 4" flexi dump and it stopped both problems full stop
