I posted earlier about if the angle on my downpipe was too steep. My question now is what if i can only get 4 bolts on the downpipe because the angle prevents my 5th one from going on? I assume it will leak?

 

Yup. it sure will. I actually threaded in a stud and then put a nut on. Seems to work pretty well.

 

which bolt is it?vtop or bottom, just curios

 

its the bottom bolt

 

mine's like that..i had to have the dp off the turbo about an inch where i can hand thread the nut in

 

but you still use all 5?

 

I had this issue, we took a stud and shortened it a little bit, stuck it through the DP flange and threaded a mechanical lock nut on the back side of it between the flange and the pipe (effectively making a "bolt") then spun it into the turbine flange.... its working so far.

 

thanks for the suggestion

 

yeah i have all 5 in...that's first nut to go on and last to come out
