Heat up that puppy with an aggressive drive, and then be extra careful touching the exhaust after. You might not need to acquire a torch if you do it that way. I'd be amazed if vice grips, penetrating lube and the heat from a drive don't help.

 

i ended up cutting it off with a dremmal and installing new hard ware. but when i go to put the the cat back on im going to need to knock those other bolts out

edit:

the test pipe doesnt add any noticable sound with a stock exhaust to me.

 

really i thought it would make the stock exhaust more raspy

 

Only if you cut off the resonator.

yea i dont have a resonator

 

Or if you're FI.

 

i got a test pipe and an hks high power dual exhuast i love the way it sounds its got a resonator so at low rpm its not loud at all but wen u hit the gas it sounds amazing only problem is wen u first start up it idles high and has a very very low pitch loud rumble wich actually i dont mind much :-D

 

ya its more raspy at wot but that's about it. I love the smell
