No idea. the instructions or "manual" is just a few typed pages that are essentially worthless. It doesn't say what size bolt it is. Take your manifold to the hardware store and see what bolt fits in there.

Take the manifold or if you have one of them then take that one in. It's nothing rare so you should find it at Home depot or lowes, also try autozone pep boys or the good old true value.
I edited to the wiki!

actually the threads that the STAR kit uses are not found at home depot. They are metric. the ones on the turbo are 8 x 1.25 I think. and the pitch is ...damn forgot what it was. After buying so many bolts I would think I could remember.
Well long story short. I tried homedepot, but the guy didnt find a fit, he asked me what it was for I said a car, hes into hot rods so he recommended a mom and pops hardware store about 9 miles from me, man that place had every bolt imaginable. Try one of those.

yeah any local small hardware store should have any bolt your looking for, I would recomend buying longer bolts for where you mount the turbo to the manifold since the bolts that came with my kit stripped a little bit of the manifolds threads, those bolts I can tell you are 10m-1.25. As for the wastegate ones I don't know.
