how the hell did you remove those three bolts that connect the cat to the b-pipe?? i'm trying to install my TCS, and i wrestled with those bolts for a good 2 hours......the muffler was easy to remove but it was those three bolts!! me and my cousin tried "liquid wrench" (WD40) and even a propane blow torch, but not even one bolt would budge.....i think i'm just gonna bring it to a shop to do it....what do you think?? Also, just to make sure i'm not an idiot, to loosen the bolts, counter-clockwise, right??

Lefty Loosey, Righty Tighty! Got my whole cat-back installed for $35. Worth the price of not having to DIY, I'd say.

Actually, I got it done at a mod specialist shop that has done most of my work for me, so they may have given me a break, but most peeps don't pay much, I do know that. Call around and see.

I got two of them off using an electric impact gun type tool I got from a friend, the last one... I drove it down the street to Speedy, gave the guy $20 to air impact it off, then drove home with nothing from the cat back to put the new system on
