Anybody know were I can find some of these throttle body studs? I've been looking all over the internet and at the dealer and can't seem to find them.

The cheapest and fastest way would be to go to the hardware store and buy some 4 inch bolts and nuts/ washers for them, cut the heads off and thread them into the manifold. That's what i did with my magnus. I put studs in all 4 holes, made dissassembling the TB alot faster and easier.
 
Bringing this back from the dead..

What is the bolt thread pitch and size?

I am missing my lower right hand side bolt. I dont know if it will clear the TBE. But I really dont want to run with just three. Boost leak on the way.

This thread is a year old but I just ran across it searching and if someone else searches, they might want to know the answer too. The throttle body studs and bolts are both 8mm x 1.25mm 75mm long.
