Your not too clear hear. Where are the bolts broke ,in the exhaust side of the turbo? or the bolts from the downpipe to the cat? Welp whichever how much of the bolt is exposed? You need to be very carefull here with what you do before you start really fckn up parts. Please go into detail about what is going on I can help. Broke bolts are a pain but with all the right tools you can fix it. late mike

those bolts are welded to the flange right? or is it an aftermarket setup? I would say your best bet is the muff shop. They usually have flanges on hand. They will take out your center section,cut off the flange put on the new flange, possibly add pipe and then flare it to hold the flange on. Good luck bro late mike

I had the same problem. I wound up taking a torch to the stock flange and taking the downpipe and cat to the muff shop where they welded on a new flange and gave me new bolts.
