Well this chaps my ***

Tried installing my new exhaust today (The RS*R ExMag). Lifted the car and the bolts holding the stock exhaust together are completely rusted on . I tried a shitload of wd40 and hitting the sides with a hammer and they won't freaking come off. I think I'm just going to go to a shop and have them install it. Any ideas before I take it to the shop, I'd rather do this myself. Thanks for your help.

use pb blaster let it soak for a while, hit it and repeat. It will dissolve the rust eventually.

Or, you could do what I did... get all the bolts you can, drive the car mufflerless to a local muffler shop, and give the guy 20 bucks to lift it up and break the bolts. Drive home, let it cool off, and complete the install. NOT recommended if there are lots of police on the route to the muffler shop.
