Compressor housing bolts stripped
 

Hey guys. I rotated the housings on my turbo this weekend and when we tried to tighen one of the bolts that hold the compressor housing from rotating, it wouldn't tighen up. All the other bolts are perfectly normal, and the compressor housing is tight and doesn't move. My question is, should this worry me, or should it be okay?

why not just get another bolt? then u wont have anything to worry about :)

I'd need a bigger bolt and tap the hole. It's the hole that's stripped, not the bolt, sorry. :(

if it's tight dont worry, if you are worried then tap it.

...but you already knew that ;D

Just go get a Helicoil kit.And you can still use the same bolt.
