88304, Quick DP Stud Question
Posted by csmakio, Jul-28-05 12:56 PM
Alright so one of my downpipe bolts walked out after driving for a bit and I lost it. So were my downpipe meets my turbo setup is leaking very badly.

I drove around all today looking for a Stud that would work but no place had any, I have a HRC Stage 1 kit by the way.

I did find a place that had a same sized metric bolt that fits perfectly. The downpipe came with 3 studs and nuts, I just wanted to make sure it would be fine if I just used one bolt instead of a stud and nut or would that cause problems? I tryed to search but couldnt find anything.

Thanks
Nick

Use a bolt as a temporary solution. DP to turbo fasteners are under lots of stress, a stud should be used. Order one that matches the others from McMaster.
