Na the blue rex is our other friend cody. I had the silver saturn Ion, which im trying to sell. I bought this 04 silver rex about 3 weeks ago now and its been a hell of a pain. It came with a catless TBE which I had to take off to pass smog. While taking it off I saw that the person who had first installed the TBE had cut off one of the turbo studs to get the stock exhaust off. Then while I was taking the other nuts off, one of the other studs worked its way out.
That was the range of emotion I went through when I saw all that. SOOO anyways I fixed it the best I could and put the stud back in and it seems to be sealed pretty good, but by what your saying there has to be a leak. So I am going to take it all apart and I am gonna drill out where the studs were and just use 5 bolts instead of 3 bolts 2 studs. Im thinking that something could be wrong with the turbo as well. Maybe when I take it out I can show you or bring it on thursday to the bullys and everyone can gather around and say "wtf is going on with this turbo".
