[QUOTE="BadBlue98GT, post: 13789454, member: 83066"] I just did this and reused my stock blower to lower intake and lower intake to head bolts. I replaced the intercooler to blower bolts with new ones...stainless allen heads, can't remember the size. Use accurate torque measurements (inch pounds versus foot pounds) and skip the extra 90 degree turn on the blower to lower intake. I read a lot of threads and information that said to replace everything with new stuff every time, but that seems like a waste to me. The only bolts that will shoot through your motor like 7.62 through a terrorist if they break are the intercooler to blower bolts. Everything else will be contained where it lies, although it will most likely create a leak and be a severe pain in the dick to remove so if you are paranoid or can't read a torque wrench, replace everything with 9.8 or 10.8 stainless steel hardware as an extra $30 shouldn't break your bank (if it does, then you're in the wrong hobby). I just thought it was unnecessary and wasteful. [/QUOTE]
