Raider's P2187 on a 2007 Mazdaspeed 3

I'd say put on the missing nuts, tighten up the exhaust, and reflash your last map to clear your learned trims out. Who knows how long you've been driving around like this. After you flash then check out the STFTs to see if they go into the teens.

Pretty sure CS provided metal gaskets when we installed that turbo.

Yeah they did. I just hate the fact that I can't work on my own car, man.

Factory states to remove it all and reinstall. Pretty disappointed right now.

Mannn, what a crock. Any of them willing to do you a solid and take care of it the logical easy way in their off-hours?
 
Takes like 20 minutes to unbolt the catback, RMM, PMM, and shift the engine forward to unbolt the downpipe.

They told me, nobody wants to work on my car anymore because I never do what they recommend. Literally had them change the oil 2 times. I bought tires from a place I had a card on, and just spent $800 on tires for my wife's car here the week prior. I had them to the alignment tho. So I'll be changing my own oil I guess. Basically been a bad day.

How much is that going to cost you? Might be cheaper for my to fly over and install it myself. Bull shit man. What kind of mechanics are working there? You would think they would jump at the problem to help someone out.

Christine will get oiled and rubbed down Sunday.

Just need Eric to stop panicking before Christine gets angry and corners someone in an alley.

O2 and MAF sensors arrive Saturday (denso) and OEM hardware ordered and arrives tomorrow. Because my work doesn't want my business.

We're flying to a clandestine rendevous at @Raider place?

Ok, so about an hour to do what I was told would be 6 hours. But with @Mauro_Penguin soft hands, all bolts and nuts on the manifold and downpipe were tightened. They were not finger loose, but still needed an ugga dugga. Boost leak test found a LOT of leaks in the PIA piping. Fixed those, then found the Forge V1 to be bad. Leaking at the base, and @Micha is sending me his Turbosmart, and will do more testing. Did not replace any sensors, but did put the original o-ring on the MAF sensor and wrapped in Teflon tape. Sits flush again and is tight.

Did a startup idle log, WOT, and another idle. It is running a lot better according to butt dyno. Since we did remove the battery, it is still re-learning.
