i got it from www.uprd.com but they are no longer in business. try going direct through www.pacesetterexhaust.com i think. you can purchase the ceramic coated ones from them but i would go with racing beat they are much better. i went with pacesetter cause i'm a cheapass when it comes to the GTU :p although i have had zero problems with my headers after 2 years, winters etc etc. :thumbsup:

Which bolt was it? If it's on the intake manifold you could probably just take the entire manifold. Here's one that somebody took of my engine bay:

Thanks for the compliment.https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png It hasn't really given me any major problems. The worst things that have happened were a leaking water hose, and a leaking oil line to the turbo. Those were fixed pretty easily. When I first had the car running I was using the stock ECU. waynespeed from the rx7forum helped me out alot with the Wolf 3D. He helped me to get it running really well. It's a little on the rich side, but we'll fix that later on when we dyno the car.



I've been using it just about every day for about 1 1/2 years. The first 9 months was with the 89-91 stock turbo. After that the car sat for 6 months while I worked on it and had major delays.:( I've been running with the T-78 for 2 months. My motor was done by Rampage. It seems like a good motor, but they closed down.
