I did the TD04 conversion

For the GT17 - TD04 converstion, I bought:
(1) A rebuilt TD04 from XsBoost Turbos in Ohio. They sent along the 2 additional 12MM banjo bolts required for the GT17 conversion.
(2) the turbo base steel gasket and oil return gasket from eeuroparts.
(3) A package of a dozen generic 12MM copper brake banjo bolt washers from an ebay seller. These were beefier than the original Saab washers and provided a better seal.
I used the original GT17 oil and coolant lines. The new banjo bolts and heavier washers work well together - no leaks. I did not have the ECM reflashed and am still using the original spark plugs.
