Default thread repair?

Hey guys,

I normally don't post here, I just lurk around and check out the cool stuff people make. I have a question regarding repairing a hole/thread on a turbo exhaust housing. My buddy told me that I could get a thread insert to repair it. Now the hole were the stud is suppose to go got enlarged, and now the stud is too small. (M8 1.25mm)

I was wondering if an insert would still work? This is what I was looking at. (http://www.mcmaster.com/param/asp/PS...MainWidth=1070)
