Re: head gasket
If you need a new head gasket I would stay oem if I was you. Are you sure you blew the gasket? First do a compression test to verify. You don't necessarily have to upgrade the studs but you can if you would like....so to answer your question...no you don't have to change them unless somehow you bent them.

Re: head gasket
If it's white then it's coolant. It could be a blown seal in the turbo or it could be a busted head gasket. Is your coolant or oil milky at all?

Re: head gasket
It might be a seal in the turbo just slowly leaking. How many miles do you have?
