Ok. Well, that'll be my project this weekend. Do they make easy outs that small? Those are some thin bolts.

Yes, they come in all sorts of sizes. If you're not famiar on how the easy-out extrator works, do yourself a favor and break off a stud on some junk part in the garage and practice on that (drilling into the center of the broken stud, tapping the extractor in, and wrenching the stud out). You don't want to do an OJT on the car.

Don't forget to order your replacement bolts from the Dealer. Not sure if you can get those individually or have to get the whole set.

Good luck Steve.

So I know this is an old thread, but what is the advantage of installing these?

You will lost a little low end torque and fuel economy, but gain 3-5hp in the high rev range.

Doug at BamaChips noted mid range gains of 7-9 rwhp and 8-10 rwtq from 3000 rpm's and up on the dyno.
