Like seriously, there were bolts I could see but not tighten when I attempted to tighten my exhaust manifold bolts and bolts on the turbo itself. I'm defiantly interested to see somebody perform this task to see what sorta tools are used so I can buy some tools (I'm an addict to buying tools).

I have a 3/8 drive torque wrench and a unit joint in both my 1/2 and 3/8 drive socket sets so I'm sure we'll be all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
