Topic: Exhaust manifold studs to turbo exhaust flange?

[tazz]

Does Anyone know if the two top studs on the exhaust manifold that bolts to the exhaust in-let flange on the turbo are the same size.  Looking at the turbo flange it looks like they are different diameters but if you do a parts look up it lists the bolts as the same as the ones used from the turbo exhaust outlet to the cat and I dont think that all four bolts are the same size though.
Thanks

This is definitely a DDM question

They are the same.  I had to replace those and the exhaust studs

Wierd then my holes in the the flange on the turbo are different diameters.
The top two one is a round hole about 8mm the other a oval hole about 8mm. The bottom two holes are round and about 9.5mm in diameter.
Do they use a different size stud than the ones that go from the turbo to the cat?
Anyone have the correct part number for the studs im looking for?
11609870 is the PN # for the studs for the turbo to cat and the exploded parts view give the same part number and thst the problem im having.  I also need the correct PN# for the nuts.

Joe do you still have the PN# for those studs and nuts.
Thanks
Think I was able to find the correct PN# for the studs and nuts that go from the Exhaust manifold to the turbo exhaust inlet flange.
11609953 stud
11516077 nut

I bought the replacements at Advance Auto.  Came in a box of 10 with nuts. M8-1.25mm

When the dealer attempted to properly change my water pump several years ago, they snapped a turbo to exhaust stud, removed and loosened several exhaust studs and then sent me on my way.  NICE!.  It took me a while to figure out what the noise was when I went WOT.  Eventually the turbo gasket failed and I figured it what the noise was.  In performing the repair, I discovered the broken stud.  Bought the kit at Advanced and ended up using 5 of them.  I replaced all the turbo studs and the one missing on the engine for the exhaust manifold.
