    One of the bolts that connects the BOV to the IC has broken off. I tried to use an extraction tool with the help of Brian, and that broke off too. Called SoG to ask what machine shop they recommended and they didn't know of any.

    Does anyone know of a machine shop i can go to that can extract the broken off bolt in my IC? :sx:

    Man that car is making you work for that repair isn't it..
    Just remember how sweet it'll be to be driving it again.

    Sorry I can't recommend a shop.

    I second calling TS, they'll definately know. Or, call SoG and ask to speak with Will (TS's old Tech, SoG's new tech).

    I had the same thing happen to me a while back. Knowledge performance took care of it for me. Thats kinda far from where your at. Im sure you can find a place closer.

    Got it fixed... stopped by SoG this morning and Bob drilled a new hole and tapped it for me.

    Thanks Bob! (i know he doesn't read these boards, but oh well)
