So there are 8 big bolts that have to be taken off, to remove the twin turbo's the top right bolt that closest to the front of the car is slightly stripped, but I cant seem to get a good angle at it.... how can I get that bolt out with out stripping it to the point it cant be removed?

Use a MAP or Oxy Acetelyne torch and a 6 point (not 12 point) socket. Heat that sucker up and it will come right out.

If it gets ruined you could unbolt the engine mount bolts (1 on each side) and raise the engine up a little if it would give you better access. Sometime locking pliers will get rounded nuts off. Heat will also help as stated above. I have also been know to hammer a smaller crappy socket onto a soft nut in desperate situations. Last solution usually involves welding a piece on the nut that can be used to back it off.
