im putting my greddy kit on the del sol soon, im getting a exhaust mani gasket for sure, do i need to get a oil pan gasket? should i reuse that? also is there anything i should put between the turbo and manifold some type of sealer?

Lastly does anyone know the specs to torque the exhaust mani bolts and the oil pan bolts.

thanks.

 

i needs to know!

I didn't replace either gasket when i installed my greddy kit. I did use some liquid gasket though. I don't know the specific tourque specs of the exhaust mani, but make sure you get them good. I had a little bit of an exhaust leak because some of those damn bolts are tough to get to. Good luck with the install the site above is a step by step and a really good write up. Have fun with the turbo

 

Better yet, here are your service manuals.

my studs started coming out of my head, and the oil pan gasket, you'd wanna replace it, cmon now, you go through all of the troulbe to take it off, tap it, put it back on, put on the motor and tranny under supports, hook up the oil return and bolt on the downpipe, to have the oil pan leak on you cuz you were to cheap to buy a 20 dollar gasket, i dont know about you but all that work is worth more than 20 dollars to me, just my .02

 

I plan on replacing whatever gaskets I come across.(oil pan/exhaust manny, etc) As you said...the damn thing is off why not change it.....I am just paranoid like that.
