Turbo bolt broken

Recommended Posts

I was tidying up the engine bay last week and took the heat shield off the turbo to find a black patch on it (leaking exhaust gasses). On closer inspection I found one of the bolts to be snapped that holds the turbo on.

 

I think it will need drilling out and re-tapping, my question is how much is this affecting my performance on the car? Is it a job that needs doing straight away or is it not too serious?

 

Cheers
