Where are they located? Torx are used rarely.
I've found they usually have a good "bite" compared to the hex head fasteners, and the weakness is usually in the driver bit.
The driver bit is usually the first to go, thankfully.
Tips:
-Always keep it parallel. Always.
-Dig the crap out of the head first with an angled pick. Use an inspection mirror and a good light.
-Spray with penetrant a day before. And use MAPP/OxcyAclt heat on only the surrounding surface to open the surrounding material.
-Tap the bit in with a hammer until it "rings"(metal on metal). This gives the most contact area.
