Anti sieze on hotside parts?
Should i put anti sieze on all the bolts and studs for the turbo hotside or would this not be a good idea?

I have used it on plugs and sensors on the manifold and heads on several cars and had good luck with breaking free the parts later on.

It's definitely a good idea. Put some on the O2 sensor threads as well.

i did it on all my hot side bolts and O2 sensor, its only going to make it easier when taking apart, if the antizeize does not burn off

For exhaust parts I recommend the harder to find copper based anti seize! You'll thank me later. It really is superior.

FYI, the antiseize (copper and normal) will smoke quite a bit when you first start it up. It's fun to go drive in traffic with smoke coming out of the hood vent. You get some funny looks.

It's a good thing to do. You will thank yourself the next time you take it apart!
