Well id give yourself an extra 1/2". Flange from the downpipe is probably 3/8" and lets just say the turbo is 3/8". 30mm may be a tad short. I would go with a 35-40. You can always cut some off.

I placed an order with boltdepot.com on Tuesday (received Wednesday), along with a bunch of hardware I picked up the closest thing they had to a stud. Its basically a stud without the smooth part separating the two sides of the thread, but with a allen key hole (for lack of better word) in the "head" of the stud. They are 40mm long, it should work I'll give it a shot this weekend to see what happens.
Any recommend any good thread lock so they dont work their way out of the turbo?

I used bolts with that setup and with all of my setups. They tend to loosen up after the first few heat cycles then are fine.

head exhaust studs
I'm having trouble identifying the thread size of the exhaust studs on the head. It appears to be 10mm 1.25. The problem is that my plastic mic = FAIL.
I need to place an order from mcmaster. Any idea how far the stud goes into the head?
More on topic......Some people are using studs for the turbo to manifold, others are using studs. Which are easier to get to for re-tightening? Which is the best option?
