Re: arp head bolt loose?? (egturbo)
What exactly do you mean by "loose"? Does the stud not thread into the hole anymore? If so then you might have to get a helicoil like "tvrsir" suggested. A helicoil is just a threaded insert that takes the place of the damaged threads. I don't know if I would trust a helicoil on a boosted motor though.
