How's it going, I was super excited to get my new MAPerformance o2 eliminator in the mail on friday. So of course last night I decided to tackle it. Everything was going well until I got to the point removing the o2 housing, not a fun time by any means. Any who, as I was working on the first bolt on top, got it about half way put and of course snapped... Luckily, it broke perfectly to keep the o2 housing still attached so it's "driveable", but definitely needs to be addressed sooner than later.
Ultimately I need to know my options to remove this bolt as well as the other 4. Do I just need to go ahead and pull out the turbo, drill out the broken bolt and rethread it? Then do the same if any other break, or is there a different option? Open to ideas, but I'm guessing this will be the route I have to take. Thanks for responses in advanced!

You got it!
Don't be sad. Almost anyone taking the stock o2 housing apart ended up trashing those bolts.
Go slow and use a lot of PB-Blaster next go round.
