Helix Dp

Situation:

I have installed a Helix DP and where it connects to the internal wastegate, all the bolts, bolted on properly but one. It looks like the bottom bolt (stud), nearest the intercooler came short (the nut won't screw on because the bolt was to short)

-Made sure that the DP was seated properly.
-All the other bolts and nuts came on perfectly.

What do I do next?

Has anyone had this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Do you mean internal wastegate?


What do you mean by "came short"

Was the dp seated correctly? Was one stud (on the turbo) shorter then another?

Thanks soggy, corrected my post "internal wastegate"

Its seem like the stud was shorter than the others. So the Nut wouldn't screw on. The DP is seated properly. When I turn on the car, I hear no leaks.
