Alright, my 91 Tsi had a pretty noticeable exhaust leak that caused a rough idle. I found the problem lied in the pipe that came from the manifold down into the turbo...what I get is called the down pipe? I'm not too savvy on the names of parts, but I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on getting replacement parts to fix this leak and idle issue. To start with, what are the right sized bolts that hold the manifold on? When I took the manifold off the bolts were a mixture of standard and metric, which I know isn't right. I looked at the thread that lists all the bolts sizes, but I honestly don't know the name of the parts that they connect to, so that doesn't do much for me. I also need to know the nut sizes for the bottom row on the manifold, as these were also a mix of metric and standard. To top it off the bolts that hold the manifold on to the down pipe slide in and out and only one can be tightened down. I need the correct sizes for these as well. Ill include pictures of everything I have taken off, aside from the square gasket I pulled from the down pipe. I've located all of the gaskets I need to properly seal everything aside from this one square gasket that lies in between the manifold and down pipe, any ideas? Thanks for the help. I would like to get this lemon of mine running.
