Why Use Exoracing Extended Intake Exhaust Studs?
Our extended intake and exhaust studs are an excellent solution for customers who have encountered issues with OEM bolts that may rust or become weak over time, leading to snapping. These extended studs directly replace these problematic studs or bolts, ensuring a secure and reliable connection for your intake and exhaust systems.
As some of these older popular Japanese engines are coming up to 30-40 years old, ageing has taken its toll on the manifold studs. Plus, they have more than likely been removed multiple times. You are always better at replacing rusted bolts than reusing them to ensure you minimise future problems.
In addition to their durability, our extended studs are also beneficial for customers using thermal gaskets on the intake side or larger flanged manifolds on the exhaust side. These customers may find that the original bolts need longer to catch the thread, which can be frustrating.
Fortunately, our extended studs are designed to solve this problem, providing the added length to ensure a secure connection.
Made from high-quality 304 stainless steel, our extended studs are more fatigue-resistant than standard bolts. The resistance means they can withstand the stresses of regular use without becoming weak or brittle, ensuring that your intake and exhaust systems remain secure and reliable for years.
Our extended intake exhaust studs include a hex tip head to make installation easier. Instead of using the old-school 2-nut method, you can install them quickly and easily with an Allen key or hex head socket.
Whether you're a professional mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, our extended studs are an excellent investment in your vehicle's long-term performance and reliability.

Exoracing Extended Stud Kit Installation Guide:
Once you have your brand new Exoracing parts, follow our easy, step-by-step extended stud installation guide to get up and running as quickly as possible.
- First, remove the old rusted studs or bolts from the cylinder head, leaving a few in, finger tight, to hold the inlet or exhaust manifold in place.
- Next, install the Exoracing extended studs using an Allen key or hex socket in the tip of the stud.
- Tighten as far down as you need them into the cylinder head.
- Put the high-temperature washers on each stud, then thread on the nuts, tightening them as you go.
- Do a pass over every nut to ensure they are tight and you're ready!
- As a side note, check the nuts after a few heat cycles, as they might expand and contract due to heat and potentially work themselves loose. Now you're all finished, tag us in any photos you have on social media as we would love to see them installed.
