3 snapped in the hole:cry: i have managed to drill studs out before but there fudging every drill bit, ones got one snapped in, ones just bust a tap that i was using to chew another up with.. that leaves it pretty fecked and only good for the bin:crap:

its an ar47 rear housing, what are the odd of slipping on another and it fitting like a glove:coffee:

might try some better drill bits on the last stud but i feel im wasting my life

any ideas, shame as the turbos done all of 200 miles:disagree:

Not really sure as I get that sort of thing done for free/exchange by my customers .
I would reckon on about £25/40 to do 3 studs tho .

Do not spend any money on it.
Just send it to me. I'd really like to have a .47 turbine housing. :D:D
