Love that pic!
thanks bro and your gate looks to be leaking at the base hughOriginally Posted by aLmk
Ya that's what it looks like. I'm not sure why any thoughts as to what I could do? It was on quite tight and tial says you only need 7 ft/lbs to get a seal with those clamps, which is nothing.
yea i tightened mine to 10lbs tq and till now no leak, hmmmm maybe the flange is warped and its not creating a full round seal, thats a thought
This.

One-off SRT Top Mount Manifold - GT3076R
My Ruckus Build
It's a possibility. Any way to test that with the manifold still on the car? And there is no way I can get a torque wrench in where I am working, my 1/4'' wrench barely fits, but I am quite positive I have torqued it past 10 ft/lbs as that also is not much torque at all.
Testing it on the car i dont think itll be a possibility sorry, and i know man your car is PITA to work on, i installed a greddy turbo kit once on a fa5, never will i again.
LOL the greddy kit is kinda easier. Its top mount so you can do it without lowering subframe. This type of setup not so much! lol O well. I'm going to clean the mating surfaces as best I can and hope that works, if it still creeps I guess next thing is to have that flange tested....
