fix it when you take the header off to install the turbo. just drill it out and becarefull not to drill into the head.

Re:Will my turbo be effected if i have a broken manifold stud?

here are your solutions:

screw extractor set. Buy the set, they are $5 for a cheap one at any hardware/autoparts store. It's a left way threaded drill so it should bring the stud right out.

drill hole, helicoil it out (or tap in something bigger).
