i'm looking to replace my exhaust housing of my t3 airesearch turbo, however, does anyone know the torque specs for the 6 outer bolts? is it required for these bolts to be torqued down? also what other issues may I run into when replacing the exhaust housing? no gaskets or seals will be affected by changing this right? thx!

nope just make sure the exhause housing goes on straight and that the turbo still turns when you put it on. Get the bolts pretty tight but dont kill them. There probably is a torque spec somewhere but ive never seen anybody torque them down.

cool, i was told to torque them down, but i don't really recall seeing a torque wrench that will fit on a few of those bolts (unless there's a small torque wrench I've never seen. Any other things I should look out for? I'm about to purchase an exhaust housing and slap it on.
