[TURFNNSURF]

That happened to my 60 trim back in December 05, the exact same two bolt heads broke off for no reason. I was pulling the turbo anyway to replace it with a more streetable PTE GT3255 , so I just had a machine shop drill the broken bolts out and re-tap the holes. I bought all new Stainless bolts and put it back together better than new.

Don't drive it like that for a long time, the other bolts are taking more load and stress with those two broken. It would be worth it in the long run to pull the turbo and get it fixed.
