OEM you dont need ARP because those bolts dont stretch.

you can get ones from arp, but those seize up just as bad as oem ones. I have snapped 3 in 6months so I just drilled the threads out all together and put bolts though with a nut on the other end so they couldnt seize up anymore.

anti seize is a must/ur best friend, this is what I use and everything comes off with no problems. You have to understand those really high temperatures on the exhaust manifold and o2 housing will cause the metal/bolts to weld on each other so that why anti seize is used so it withstands high temperatures and doesnt allow the metal to seize.

dont use lancershop, go to ur local mitsu dealer or order from mitsubushiparts.net. Call them and tell them what you need and they will give you the part number.

got it, didnt help to much . Thats the copper, which is good for like 2200deg. Bolts will stretch once you torque them and overtime with heat cycles will just wear the bolt and slowly burn away the anti sieze. Its the threads in the exhaust housing, its hard to take all that heat.

It works dont get me wrong, I just still have snapped turbo bolts. I found this method easier and cheaper will less down time since I can go autoparts store and get a grade 8-10 bolt with nut.


For the OP, go to your local mitsu dealer. They usually have them in stock and are the same price as what you see other venders selling them for but at least you dont pay for shipping nor the wait.

Do yourself a favor and buy the bolts not the studs. Will make future removal of manifold/turbo 100 times easier.
