one of the screws broke inside of the turbo

[ZFRED10]

So when i was driving down the road the other day, the bolts from my j-pipe to my turbo came loose so i got some new screws because the old ones were not long enough. I put the new ones in and they were fine. Today I was changing a coupler on my intake and I had to take off the J-pipe. When I put it back on, I guess one of the screws broke inside of the turbo threading where it bolts up to. I don't know what to do now. My car is running like shit because of the gap in the j-pipe and I don't want to drive my car until it it fixed. What should I do?

Get a broken/stripped screw and bolt removal kit and take it out.

Will I need to remove my turbo to do this and what if I stripped the threads. Don't know if I did or not.

Before you extract the broken bolt shank, stuff a rag into the compressor

inlet. That way your won't get chips down in the compressor.

Just get the bolt shank out. Then you can assess the threads. If they are

stripped you might be able to fix them with a tap. Otherwise install a helicoil

(can buy kit at local auto parts store).

Good luck
