My Ride: 08 535xi wagon oem (just starting the change)
Exclamation turbo swap, new engine mount bolts???

hi all, wow replacing turbos on a 535xi is not an easy task,, I have lost count of how many hours/days/weeks that I have been under and over and in this rig. I'm trying to button it up, I have turbos in, cats in, trying to get passenger motor mount in before I raise the subframe, of course I cant find torque specs for the 3 large aluminum bolts that go into the engine block holding the bracket, Bentley of course says all the aluminum bolts are one time only throw aways, where do you get them if we actually throw them away? whats the consensus for these types of items.. of course water pump bolts and other ones are with the kits you can buy from ecs etc..
thanks pc
