Drain Flange Bolt Size. T3/T4
Anybody know what size the drain flange holes are threaded for on a t3/T04e turbo? It looks to be around a 10mm, but I'm not sure if it's metric or a standard fine thread. Thanks.

it depends on the turbo.
IF it is a garrett there are two types:
One has standard holes its like 3/8-16 I think.
Other has 10 MM holes.
I found this out the hard way, I had turbo in car and was trying to get these bolts, I called cheapturbo.com where I got the turbo and they told me 8mm too. Like two weeks of searching and still didn't find the right bolts, called cheapturbo again and they told me some were standard sizes.
WRONG!! So I took turbo off and went to ACE until I found what I needed.

Thanks man! it has to be the 3/8-16 since I just tried 10mm and that doesn't work. thanks!
**EDIT** 3/8-16 it is. I took the turbo into the hardware like you did just to make sure
