Help - Broken Turbo Stud

Hey all, I was attempting to loosen the turbo bolts and one loosened a little and then the stud just started spinning. Any suggestions besides bringing to mechanic?

Thanks

if the stud is spinning can you just remove it from the turbo? if so, then you can replace it with another stud. If it is stripped, you might be having lots of fun. I had a problem where I stripped the stud and had to remove it with reverse thread bit
