I'll keep that in mind. Mine looked like yours did when I had issues with the turbo fitting the charge piping. After getting a better fit, I tightened mine up from the top first and then the bottom and the gap is pretty much gone. I'll check it out after a couple of drives and retighten everything. If I have issues I'll know to take that pipe to a machine shop.

As far as photos go, sign up for a free Flickr or Photobucket account. For some reason Flickr doesn't always cooperate with the forum software and leaves dead links. I haven't had any issues using photobucket.
