    Good testing today at Lakeside - car went like the clappers and I was very happy with the power. Only bummer is I think I've broken something as I have a knock coming from the near the dogbone mount/exhaust. Exhaust is a bit louder and I hear a knock sound from under my feet when I ease off the accelerator (mainly when lifting off quickly). Back to the exhaust shop next week so what the cause is. Bummer.

    Can you log it to see if your still making full boost? Loose turbo bolts would result in lower boost and potentially the knock.

    Boost felt much the same (boost gauge not installed yet tho) - but would need to log it as you said (would need to see Gav).

    How hard is it to access the turbo bolts? I reckon you might be right about that - considering the exhaust got louder too. Will get it up on the hoist Monday and see what's up.

    If it is replace the bolts and gasket as they will be stretched, a lot easier to access than an ATP manifold

    Will get it checked and replaced if that's the case. Funnily enough was just reading your thread from years ago about lockwiring the bolts!

    I do have a gasket for the manifold to turbo if you need one. Found it yesterday while making time for my "Father days" bench.

    Thanks Gav. Will head to Valley Mufflers tomorrow and get it looked at. How much for the gasket?

    You can have it but you'll need new bolts as they will need replacing. Not everything in life has a price attached
