I am having issues with my bolts backing out of my t2 flange on my sr20det. just wondering if there are other options to replace the bolts/ studs and how to keep it from backing out on me so i dont have an exhaust leak from hell. I heard the hight temp locktight is not going to work. I would greatly appreciate for the help.

I don't know about the SR, but on the RB series, it came with an adapter that conects all 4 bolts together, and has 4 flaps arround the nuts that you fold up and holds from turning, someone on here or zilvia should have one.

Old School answer:Use hardware drilled for safety wire. Safety wire is ued on aircraft etc to ensure bolts nuts etc don't get loose. Also used by some race teams. Can find the tools etc at better speed shops.
