taking them out and reinstalling = you lose the hg seal.
do it right, save yourself the headache and save us from calling you moronic.

Well I couldnt find an easy out so I just left the broken stud in there and went for a drive
I just cruised around in the country at about 60mph on some nice curvy roads, maybe 25 miles total. The car ran a perfect 190* the whole time, pulled over and no coolant was bubbling into the overflow. At idle it went to about 200ish
Then on the freeway back home I was on it a bit, maybe 4-6lbs just pulling away form traffic and ofcourse the temps start rising on the gauge and my manual gauge is bottomed out (no coolant so it cant get a reading)
All last week it would bubble into the overflow during any type of driving. Now it didnt, but it did after I boosted
Would that missing head stud make for that?

ok so i looked over the entire post looking for hope that you would get the point and do it the right way. But NO that was to much for you to Handel. first you avoided the real
solution and substituted your retarded young minded "solution" and ended up ******* something up. Now you are back asking the same people that you just ignored for help.
you are ridiculous

Your set up should now be better than new and in tip top shape!!!!! Best thing to do to make sure your headstuds seat themself!!!!! And to seal your headgasket is to go out and turn your boost up to about 35psi and run the **** out of it, make some 5th gear pulls to 12,000 rpm that should do it!!!!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!

Let me guess, this is your first turbocharged car? Any I think you just fixed the problem, so as boostfed said just turn up the boost so that the HG could seat better and you will be fine. And if you have a video camera take it along with you, so we could hear that beast of a car you have there.
I'm gonna guess and say he bought the car turboed already cause he seems very lazy and that would be too much work for him to do. Stop being a hack and do things right.....i really cant say anymore.
No, I bought the car with a blown motor and a rusted body. Ive restored it and built my own engine with my own hands, learned to weld and made all my own piping. Learned turboedit and tuned the car myself
Not a single person has touched the car. Built not bought
I might just have to break down tomorrow and pull the head if the rad compression test shows no leaks
Going to be waiting 8-10 business days for my ******* headgasket though

I do not have the resources to get the head milled though
How do you check these things for warpage, wouldnt it have to be straight within like .002", how the expletive can I see that even with a straight edge

I have 3 built d16 motors sitting here, not a problem borrowing one and getting arp to replace the broken one in time
Used arps are fine to, re-use and recycle

Um I just read something and maybe found my coolant loss problem out
Im running a crx with an eg 1/2 rad right, well I ghetto'd my overflow and ziptied it to the passenger side headlight metal backing
I just read that the overflow tank is also pressurized, when I pop my hood and I mention that I see/hear the overflow bubbling, there is also steam coming out of the top of it. Is that normal when it overflows and bubbles?
I know the thing doesnt seal as it feels kinda loose on there. I never knew it got pressurized aswell
And no, we dont have a machine shop and the only parts store is carquest, and they charge a grip, $125 for my headgasket......

More like "broke not built".
Listen to these people on these forums, most know what they're talking about. Read up as much as possible and THEN attempt whatever job you are about to do.

Unless you have a mercedes, VW, Volvo or some car with the overflow as part of your system, no you have no pressure there. pressure is limited to the radiator cap, which adjustst the coolant to and from the expansion tank.
But since you dont take advice, I just typed in useless text.
