Never used anything but standard stainless metric nuts. Never had one come loose. |

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination, talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol On 20th Apr, 2012 Paul S said:
I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

I had stainless on, i think the high temps and differing grades of steel worked them loose, found one of them on the turbo bulhead box, turned blue with heat. I'll bite the bullet and get the proper ones this time, its a right pain to strip apart just to replace them. Once again i'm in your debt gents. 133.5 bhp 123 lb torque 116mph @6640rpm 9.5psi
