This ensures when you torque them up the torque is correct and not reduceded due to binding of the threads/nut flange on the manifold. I also believe having a proper metl gasket between the turbo and manifold reduces the amount of tension/loosening stress in te bolts.mines been like that for over 30000k's since the new motor went in with no issues.Luke Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43254-loose-turbo-bolts-again-and-again/page/2/#findComment-641853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
