    OK I did a search and only found that you can just loosen the bolts on the compressor and just rotate....... BUT how tight do you make the bolts in the compressor housing? Im assuming... It cant be too tight because its aluminum.

    1. How tight for the compressor housing bolts?
    2. How tight for the hot side housing? These should be tighter because its steel.

    Here what I got turbonetics T76

    Thanks

    Just snug them down by hand, they don't gotta be much tighter than a oil drain plug. I just snugged mine by hand, no problems. They weren't very tight to begin with.
