I am replacing my stock downpipe and 2.5" hooker exhaust with a 3" TH DP and 3" ATR SS duals....

i started spraying the bolts on the turbo....

what else do i need to do to be ready? do i have to really spray them down alot more???

i really dont feel like breaking a bolt at this guy's shop

Thanks,
Jon

Thats about all you can do... just get ready for a battle with those spring loaded DP bolts. No room to pull the wrench and the stinkin bolts kept trying to retighten themselves. Other than that.... piece of cake.

I got mine off with penetrating oil - but don't
get it on the turbine housing like I did unless
you want to have a s***load of smoke coming from
under the hood next time you drive the car!! You
should spray both the spring loaded bolts and the
4 bolts that attach the stock elbow to the turbo
housing!
I put on a 3" custom DP with ext. wastegate - works great - stevet
