Broken throttle body stud
Another lesson learned: Double check to make sure the torque value you're reading is for the bolt you're torquing.
I broke one of the top studs in the throttle body. Mazda doesn't have a part number for just the stud. Any suggestions on where I could get a new stud pressed in? (Or is it a screw in stud? I haven't even checked...)

It it broke off flush with the manifold then you would need to use a scre extractor on it. You may have to take off the manifold to do this. I wouldnt recomend torquing down the small bolts that are not crucial. Unless you have a very nice expensive torque wrench and you like doing stuff like that. If you know what you are doing you can tell how tight it is suppose to be.

Has anyone ever broken the studs on the turbo that hold the DP/pre-cat? When I was working on my car I wanted to put in my DP and I had the wrench and a two foot long aluminum pipe to help me torque it, but then I got worried that I would break something and REALLY be fucked. So I saved the upgrade for another day which has yet to come. Any experiences?
