Re: turbine stripped (playahwitgame)
so get this ****. i called pheonix turbo and they said the size it 8x 1.25 for the bolts. i went to pepboys and i found a helicoil kit with no price tags. so i took it up to the register and he looked up the item. he said this item isnt even in our sytem, you can just take it. so i was soo happy. he even let me take 2 kits. later on, i was at carquest getting an oil pan gasket and just becuase i was curious, i asked how much they sell their 8 x 1.25 helicoil kits for. i looked at it. SAME EXACT THING as what i had gotten for free. he said 40+ bucks. i saved 80+ dollars. how bout that!!!
