Just in the process of buying a new turbo, does anyone have details of any torque wrench settings that I may need? Turbo to dp, turbo to manifold?

Thanks

Pete

Thumbs up

Torque setting ???? You tighten the thing till you can't tighten any more. I've just fitted a turbo earlier today and never had any prob's tightening the d/p or exhaust manifold bolts. Use new gaskets though as they compress well.

40lb ft and copper slip on the threads, so you can get them undone again if you need to.
