This high-performance stud is used to secure the turbocharger directly to the exhaust manifold on your Nissan Patrol TD42 engine. It is a critical component that creates a strong, sealed connection, ensuring all exhaust gases are channelled correctly through the turbo for maximum efficiency.
The original factory studs are known to be a common failure point, prone to stretching, corroding, and eventually snapping due to the extreme heat cycles of a turbo-diesel engine. Upgrading to a superior Inconel stud is a crucial preventative measure for reliability, especially on vehicles with increased boost, a performance tune, or those used for heavy towing.
If a stud fails, it will cause a significant exhaust leak between the manifold and turbo. This leads to a loss of boost pressure, resulting in poor engine power, increased fuel consumption, and dangerously high exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs). You will often hear a loud ticking or hissing noise from the engine bay as a clear symptom of a leak.
