The 2 upper o2 housing bolts on my stock o2 housing and turbo are missing. I was wondering if the turbo housing has threads in the holes that i am supposed to thread the bolt into (if so anyone know bolt type/size/threads per ") or if its straight through and I'm supposed to use a bolt and nut. Thanks for any help.
 
Thanks for the info on where to find the parts, Am i correct in assuming that the 2 upper o2 housing fasteners are bolts then and not studs? And that that threads are in the turbo houseing? Thanks for the help

To make sure they don't fall out again... Tighten the bolts then let the car heat up. While the turbo and 02 housing is hot tighten the bolts again. Don't burn yourself though, i have plenty of times and it sucks. This will help in keeping them from coming out again though.
