mate they're the main studs not the head studs . . . looking for this part number 204-4705 . . .

[Golf Houso]

Oh right yeah they go in the bottom end, not the head my mistake.

[KI11Z]

lol, aw good

[DubSteve]

Heaps of guys use them in the US but we are also talking FI maybe not worth it on the NA cars

[KI11Z]

its what i'm thinking, it's an overkill perhaps . . .

[rayray086]

It'd be a good investment I think. Would you have any aspirations for FI later on Alex? I remember reading somewhere ARP hardware are reusable?

[KI11Z]

yes they're reusable ray, and i've also heard that you need to re-torque them every so often? As for turbo . . . i doubt it, i like my n/a situation, i'll probably just work it that way, it's my goal to have a wicked n/a vr . . .

well there is that saying, do it once, do it right....
