Need some feedback here guys as my turbo is coming out for all new gaskets and braided lines at the weekend.should i just get some OEM Lock tabs or are those driftworks metal lock nuts a better idea the only mods done to engine will be elbow and downpipe so more or less standard set up.Im worried as alot of s body owners tell me turbo comes undone frequently?
Mayhe some Threadlock too??

A lot of people will tell you to use the tabs, I used nordlock washers and lock nuts and it never came loose. The only issue is the studs coming loose in the manifold, some folks tack weld them in.
