You might try putting it in a vise and heating the bolt with a propane torch.

They have a little tool called the nut splitter...Maybe $20...It grabs the stripped bolt and cuts into it to split it off...Got one at Sears and most auto parts store...Sometimes they work sometimes they dont...

Okay spend a little over 2hrs to get the header and Dp out and now turbo is in.
