Turbo/Exhaust Studs

Porsche wants $5.00 for a m8x22mm stud....I want to replace all of mine with new ones and can't pay that much ptax. These look the same, anyone try them?

As long as you use the $7 washers....

Seriously, those look a little different. The non-threaded portion is a bit longer. Porsche studs are 3.3 cm total length. This is important particularly with some aftermarket cats where clearances are very tight. If the stud is too long you won't have enough room to thread the nut on.

Audi and VW use the same exhaust/turbo nuts (M8 x 1.25). The VW part number is 11621711954 and the Audi Part number is 900 850 01. Both are way cheaper than the Porsche parts. I use the VW nuts and they worked perfect with both a stock exhaust and my Unobtainium exhaust.
