Default turbo stud removal

how do you remove a stud for the turbo ( evo 8 )? I tried buying a stud removal kit and still no luck.

If you want to remove the stud intact, and have the use of an impact gun, you can torque down a nut and use the gun to remove the stud and nut together, and when you want to reuse, its pretty much the reverse, if you have trouble with the stud if you try this, soak it with some pb blaster and heat with a torch, if it is broke, you can drill the rest out, remove almost all of the meat, until its thin enough to where the metal will flex and be able to remove with an extractor bit. Or drill thru to the tap size.
You can also use two nuts, tightening them both on together, and use a wrench to remove if the stud is intact.

I do have a impact gun and done the bp plaster, but still no luck. My next step is to cut and drill.

the stacking two nuts on top of each other does well. Just make sure you are trying to loosen the bottom one
