HELP on which fasteners to use for turbo to header

I used Grade 8s, they snapped after about 8 minutes

Originally I used some socket head cap screws (black allen head type) and they held up, but when I removed the turbo to surface my header and mating surfaces for mounting the turbo two of the socket head cap screws broke off so I replaced them with Grade 8 (goldish ones) and those snapped...

SO. What is the best to use for fastening the turbo to the header?
