Default Call Terry at Colorado Automotive Machine @ 303-789-7552.....
...if he can't do it, he uses a place that can take it out with an E.D.M. (Electronic Discharge Machine) that will just destroy the stud without touching the turbo. Expect something like $25-30 if Terry does it and $50-60 if it needs to go the E.D.M.

Default Sinker EDM FTW! Hope it's cheap!....BTW is helicoiling an option?
Just wondering. It may make a difference when they're bidding this job out.
