thats half the fun though surely :lol: also what happens when you do turbo bolts up finger tight :lol: cooler pipe dodgy angle and to much boost :cool

My mate had a golf 1.8 turbo with the k04s fitted on it and for some reason his turbo kept coming loose too. Not sure how he fixed it in the end but he used to carry the tools in the boot to tighten it.
