Getting Ready for 14b Install

[Jeremoose]

Hey guys, my 14b turbo is on the way as-is my custom fabbed LICP/UICP. So basically all I need for the install is everything that bolts the turbo up and my oil feed line.

I've heard that new turbo bolts and such are ludicrously expensive (I'm not really near a mitsubishi dealership anyways) so I'm checking around on ebay.

I mean bolts should be bolts, but I don't want them busting off right away or stripping themselves.

Also, anybody know where I can find some gaskets?

P.S. The oil feed line is taken care of.

New turbo bolts cost me 4$ each when I did my 14b install a month ago so they aren't too expensive. Those are pretty close to the same price it looks like. I ordered all my gaskets and bolts from Extreme PSI. I called them with a few questions and they were more then happy to help me out. They also shipped really quickly. Good luck with the install, hopefully you will be as happy with the upgrade as I was.

I've heard good things about extremepsi as well......

.. and those bolts should work out for you just fine.

Bolts are not just bolts. You could get a bolt that is the same length, same thread, etc. But if it's not the correct hardness of steel, it may end up busting on you. If you ask me, I would rather get ripped off on bolts and have them come out when needed, than save a few bucks and have them bust off in the turbine housing.

If you haven't already, check out mitsubishiparts.net. They have really good prices.
