Locking CV Bolts for 911, 914, 924, 931, 924S, 944, 951, 968, 928 & BMW2002
Stage8There have been multiple reports of CV bolts failing or losing tension on the 914, 924 and 944, particularly for track use. The OEM units are designed as a stretch bolt, and must be replaced after each use. In addition, CV grease in the threads of the stub axles may contribute to the problem. Stage8's patented GrooveLok system eliminates the concern entirely and are much easier to secure than safety wire.

Locking Exhaust Nut Kit for 931
$150
Suitable for all 931. 
Kit contains:
  • QTY 16: M8x1.25 nuts and E-clips (for manifold-to-head, jpipe-to-wastegate, and wastegate-to-dump pipe)
  • QTY 9: M10x1.50 nuts and E-clips (for manifold-to-turbine, turbine-to-jpipe, and turbine-to-main exhaust pipe)
931 locking exhaust kitThese high quality header kits are made from high quality, heat resistant stainless steel. Even when using conventional locking copper nuts, the studs can still back out, particularly on three bolt flange that attaches the turbine housing to the manifold. Once this occurs, one or more studs will often fall out, and are almost impossible to replace with the engine in situ. Loose exhaust hardware leads to exhaust leaks, boost leaks, inefficiency of the turbo due to heat loss, and additional stress on the manifold which can lead to the infamous cracked exhaust manifold on the 931.
