Tightening torque for turbo cartridge fasteners and v-band needed
Hello, I am unable to find published/legitimate torque values for the 4x M6 screws (on one side of the turbo cartridge) and the v-band clamp that secures the opposite side of cartridge to the exhaust manifold. I have attached a photo of the hardware. Thank you in advance. Mike
Checked newTIS but nothing for working on the turbo, only removal / installation. Here's their generic hardware specs --- see how they compare to Garrett's T3 Automotive torque specs.
I'd expect the same results when looking for sub-assembly or bolt-on unit repair instructions. Mini techs aren't expected to repair these items, only replace them. Maybe try a turbo repair shop?
