Did you spray some PB Blaster liberally on the bolts and let it soak for a while prior before removal of the bolts?

As ajp says... You don't need to remove the turbos to install the downpipes. Here's pics of my instal of the PPE DPs

Sounds like you should order upgraded turbos and knock that install out now too :)
