The turbo studs on the FA turbo motors are notoriously difficult to deal with. If you're lucky enough to get the nuts off without drama originally, be sure to replace them with higher quality hardware. The factory nuts are locking nuts that are prone to damaging the low quality factory studs. With our J-Pipe, we include four custom CNC machined stainless steel studs along with matching nuts. By popular request, we're now offering this hardware kit for sale so that those running different J-Pipes can still benefit from the upgraded hardware.

"If you are planning on a J pipe swap, don’t do it without this kit. I was going to but erred on the side of caution and got this first. Ended up having to drill out one of the nuts/studs. If I didn’t have those I would have been screwed. Get these!"
"Anyone will tell you the stock hardware is a absolute nightmare, you need this hardware, amazing quality and precision."
"Really good quality will buy again if I have to."
"I absolutely love the hardware kit. Made install of the j-pipe so much easier. Compared to the factory ones these are top notch."
"Just handling & looking at the components imparts confidence. I'm switching my factory J-pipe to aftermarket catless and want to take this opportunity to replace apparently less sturdy factory turbo bolts... especially since I expect to be revisiting that area in future. Cannot say it better... Save yourself MAJOR headache..!"
"I purchased this set after hearing the horror stories of broken studs etc. As it turned out, my original studs were in perfect condition, so I only used the nuts, and kept the studs for later use if needed."
"Excellent materials and machining. I got relatively lucky and was able to get the stock J-pipe off with out much trouble. In order to make sure it stayed that way I installed GrimmSpeeds kit. Beautifully made with quality materials. Highly recommend."
"Three out of the four stock nuts and studs came off easily, but the fourth was destroyed when I removed it. Thankfully I had purchased this kit before my install and I was ready to go right away! This kit is a must for any J-pipe replacement!"
