Chargepipe to turbo inlet mounting point snapped
The previous owner of this car stripped out the chargepipe to turbo mount so he rethreaded it. This must have weakened the mounting point itself and it snapped in half when I was trying to put in new chargepipes today. Does anyone have an idea what I could do to fix this short of replacing the turbo? Temporarily solutions appreciated as well.

zip ties may melt. You could use hose clamps. Put 1 around the turbo side, another around the charge pipe, then use another clamp or wire to keep the 2 together.
You could also try to have someone weld metal back on. Though, I don't now how difficult it is to weld to turbo housing. |
