Exhaust Manifold Studs
#2
1. Penetrant
2. Double Nut Method (probably wont work)
3. MIG welder attach new nut onto end (If this doesn't work)
4. Lastly - Drill out with reverse drill - Use Eazy Out to remove last remains
There are guides found through this website - do a search.

I've been able to successfully remove VQ studs using an external torx socket.
OP: Use penetrant and be patient. Turn the ratchet SLOWLY. Also make sure to keep the ratchet handle perpendicular to the stud or else you risk breaking the head off.
