ARP Head stud kit
Manufacturer Name: ARP

Complete set of ten cylinder head studs for VW Diesel engines. Tougher than standard stretch bolts and more resiliant to head chatter on engines running higher that stock boost pressures. A must for engines running over 1.25 bar of boost (18psi)

Yes tony you are right the standard good quality ones from Germany are £14 odd whereas further up the page is the £125 odd ARP bolts, these are used on tuned diesel motors with increased turbo pressures, it helps keep the head on and stops head chatter associated with higher working pressures.
So to the original poster please see a little further down Simons page for the standard JX bolts at £14 or thereabouts

And you've probably qualified for a special label on the packaging when your delivery arrives!
