Here's another solution: buy new nuts from the mitsubishi dealership. They're cheap and they don't come loose for another 100k miles!

1.) I like stainless steel hardware, and when some parts of the kit are missing, i get frumpy, however please note that i attributed the lost hardware to my improper install.

2.) I have purchased new dealership nuts....they are holding up OK on my GVR4, but I also needed washers...and they were not as cheap as junkyard hardware. And they are not always in stock, I remember purchasing the last 7 nuts from them, thank god I use the 10mm outer studs.

3.) Why hasnt anyone commented on how I secured the turbo to manifold bolts? (in pic)

Believe me, I noticed it, but when it comes down to it, if it works, it works.

I've always just got new ones from the dealer and never really had a problem
