turbo to manifold bolts

[Mark00s4]

Do you use any type of loctite or anti seize on these bolts when installing. ?

[RedB5S4]

No just tighten the balls out of them.

[Mark00s4]

Ok thank you.

I use copper anti-seize on the bolts that hold the turbo to the exhaust manifold.

copper antiseize as per factory manual to facilitate removal down the road. Otherwise they might really be hard to remove.

loctite will likely just burn off, but I would put some sort of high temp anti-seize, because lets be honest, eventually you will want even more power (we always do) and will have to pull the turbos again for larger ones.

Hard to remove?

I did this to mine.

That's amazing.

Not an 2.7T, but what I did to my 1.8T with FrankenTurbo:

This was only my 3rd time safety-wiring, so please don't judge harshly! On the bright-side there haven't been any problems with it.
Also haven't had any problems with the turbo bolts since using 034's high-temp antiseize. That stuff works wonders. Previously I had a bolt break off in the turbo, and nobody likes that.

That's amazing.

Works like a charm!
