Stripped Exhaust studs

my89Supra · 07-31-2011, 04:54 PM

Looking for best solution to repair stripped exhaust studs. I see DriftMotion sells a helicoil repair kit and another company called Time-sert sells thread repair inserts.

Anyone have experience with either of these or have an alternate suggestion ?

Also, is it possible to remove the exhaust manifold with the turbo intact (disconnecting oil and water lines of course).

Thanks for the help.
