its called tap and die - most machine/engineering shops will do it

You can buy cheapo tap sets from $2 shops.

does the job.

If it were a tool that would be used fairly often then I wouldn't cheap out.

Hannys Performance can do that for a cheap price or could be free if he is in a good mood

pirtek would probably do it

on the turbos its a stud, just remove the stud with another one.
Due to heat on the turbos the studs do break down

If your tapping make sure you take it slow and reverse it every now and then. Nothing worse then trying to tap a new thread and the tap breaks on you. I use to work at an engineering workshop, even the expensive taps break easily.
