Head clamping load is what keeps the head gasket sealed under high cylinder pressure, and factory head fasteners are often the first thing to stretch when power goes up. This head stud kit for VW 1.8L 20V Turbo engines replaces the stock hardware with ARP2000 fasteners that hold clamping force more consistently, and the stud design gives more accurate, repeatable torque readings than bolts.
