Head studs are for safety, just to make for sure i dont get any boost leaks or headgasket separation... Not likely, but it can happen. Plus, i hear its almost always recommended when boosting.Originally Posted by d16_turbo
and the rod bolts are for more safety, because i always hear horror stories of people going boosted then later on throwing rods through their block.......So, to maybe help even further in preventing this, ill just get the rod bolts to be safe lol.
