Ok, so will the OEM nuts thread onto the ARP studs? Is there a kit or do I just need to get individual parts? Redboost, OEM studs is what I was told should be replaced. I just figured Id get a kit that had nuts as well so I didnt have to make a trip to the local stealership.
the website posted above makes it nice because thats just for the stud so you dont have to waste money on the nut/washer that comes in the whole kit.
Im going to hopefully order a set off that site when I get off work tonight. If I use those studs and new OEM nuts, I dont need to run a washer right? So, the size that I should get is the M8 X 1.25 X 38MM OR 1.5" ?? Thanks

okay thanks 
Going to order a set when I get home tonight. Ive been lucky with everything so far, so hopefully everything works out and I have boost by the end of next weekend

After having turbo related crap back out on me, I really recommend using Nord-Lock washers. For the extra $20-30 it's worth the piece of mind IMO.

^^ Actually, I just got through putting the order in a few minutes ago and bought a box of the Nord-Lock washers as well
How tight do I need to tighten the studs? Ive got the 23lbf-ft for the nuts, but I havent found anything on the studs.

My research brought me here. Further reading brought me here, NORDLOC LOCK : DMP Fasteners, Performance Parts Race Supply Shop
So would I want the (5/16 8mm washers) washer to fit a Mani and stock exhaust studs

Mcmaster.com has the nord lock washers too. Looks like a box of 20 pair (5/16, m8) runs around $11-12.
