Right I can see where this may go, but anyway.

Can I replace the studs in my turbo on the hot side to bolts?

Thanks Simon.

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

Haha I don't think Simon will fool for that one!

I can't see why not. The main reason studs are used is because they are likely to seize in the housing due the heat involved. So if you use bolts make sure you use something on them to help prevent them from seizing, like neverseize or something, then wire the bolts so they don't come loose
