Cheap place to find bolts for 14b/16g turbo set up? what size?
 
As the title states. I was wondering what size the bolts were and where I could get them on the cheap. I need the bolts that attach the turbo to the manifold, Turbo exhaust collector bolts that attach it to the exhaust turbine housing, and collector to downpipe. The bolts I find for sale are exspensive as hell. Is there a site online that sells these at a reasonable price?
thanks in advance

ask around on some dsm forums they should know the exact size

Stock Manifold to Turbo Bolts (you might not need this much length)

M10x1.25x80

O2 Housing / Turbine Discharge (again, you might not need this much length)

M10x1.25x31

I think you will only find M10x1.25x30 at the average bolt shop and they work just fine as again, you might not need the length. I like Fastenal for getting stuff but some of the small stores don't cut it.

awesome, thats exactly what I needed thanks

also i was wondering if the bolts were different for the j-pipe so I could look for those as well

i go to ace hardware for all of my bolts. their prices are good and their selection is insane. they even have stainless and grade 8 stuff. you can take the turbine housing in with you and just try bolts in it

Home depot or the local mom and pop store is my choice.

M8X1.25 - pretty sure.

Length....... 20mm *I THINK*, not sure, but that would be on a fairly thin (stock) flange, so you might need longer if your using a fatty flange.

I recommend using a HEX head bolt for the j-pipe, it will save you having to make 1/8 turns of the wrench and dinging up your paint/finish.
