#$^# Wastegate Bolts Backed out again!
Does anyone have a solution to wastegate bolts backing out. So far I've torqued them until my elbow went click and I've used lock washers. But that only holds for so many miles and so much pressure.
What works long term? Red locktite, green locktite? Tac weld the bolts? Lockwire?
I'm halfway to spending the money and having the manifold reworked for v-bands.
Any suggestions before I drop way more money than I want to?

these are really meant for high frequency and high amplitude applications like vibrating motors assemblies for industry. unless you're having an issue a standard lock nut for automotive applications should be fine.
