Also When I put the bolt back on, I hand tightened it. I noticed there are three openings on the side of the bolt... does it matter how the holes line up when the bolt is tightened.

I didn't really notice any difference in my boost... maybe a little, but it was 90% clogged before I cleaned it and I was expecting a little better performance. I am going to adjust the ALDA next I guess.

Any advice?

I have no idea why the following happens.....

Whenever I have cleaned either banjo bolt, it took about a day before the turbo started kicking in again. I have no idea why...... Working great now!
