uh oh, bolt broken...
one of the heads on the four turbo bolts is missing( it was like that when i bought it...)
 do you guys think that, that could be a sorce of why the owner before me said "...ya the turbo is kind of weak, one day i took it in for an oil change and it felt weaker ever since..." is there also any ideas how to get it out?

Re: uh oh, bolt broken...
Well, you probably have an exhaust leak at the manifold-to-turbo gasket. I can almost assure you that gasket is bad if you've been driving it like that for a while--and exhaust leaks before the turbo are NOT the friend of performance
 . I'm not sure how you would go about fixing it, but surely one of these guys will come along with a solution

Re: uh oh, bolt broken...
use an easy out. id also take off the turbo and replace the manifold to turbo gasket. might be a good excuse to do a 14b too

Re: uh oh, bolt broken...
Take out the other 3 bolts. 99.99% of the time that broken bolt is loose in there
And for what its worth I ran with 3 turbo bolts for like 2 years, making some of my best numbers at the time.  Not that 4 bolts wouldnt be better, but dont expect it to cure much.
