Lost 2 out of 3 of my waste gate bracket aliens that go into the housing. The 3rd is still there but it is behind a water fitting that for some reason I can't get a good angle on to remove. Does anyone have the dimensions of these or one handy so I can get to the hardware store? Not my pic. Stolen of the web but this is the allen I need info on. Need my car tomorrow. morning
I did not, so you may be good, but i'd keep an eye on it. I was super paranoid and would check them every time I parked for like 2 weeks straight. I really didn't want to accidentally run ALLOFIT.

So I actually lost boost slowly. It dumped 2 of the 3 allens but the 3rd is trapped by the water fitting so the bracket got pulled away from the housing but did not come all the way off. From the front everything looked normal. I have my EBC set at 10 and the low canister does 7. When this first started I dropped to 7 PSI on EBC so I assumed it had lost EBC because it went to 7 by coincidence. I started thinking I had a leak in my piping after my EBC worked in test mode. I tightened everything down and made a pressure tester. I blipped the throttle with the hood up and noticed the waste gate was moving without much throttle. The loose bracket basically got rid of all the preload.
