Hi Ted,
Nice job you did! I have been waiting to seee your final results, but in the meanwhile, I need some help/info if you can. I tried to install a Strupp CEL Eliminator, and it requires the dropping of the pipes to install in the O2 Sensor bung. I needed to remove the 2 bolts in the springs at the top of the cat pipe and they DON'T BUDGE !! I used an impact gun that I used to remove the Crank Pulley Bolt, and that couldn't even turn the bolts a smidgen. My bolts are not a bit rusty, and I'm sure rust is not the reason they are'nt moving. Please tell me how you take off those 2 bolts. They're really pissin me off. !!!

You couldnt get them off with an impact gun? I hate to ask a stupid question, and I apologize if it offends you, but are you sure you set the gun to loosen the bolts and not tighten them?

LOL, You needn't appologize I had to stop and see if I was going the right way, too ! I was turning the bolt (or should I say Trying to) counter clockwise from the bottom. Since it didn't budge, I tried short bursts of tightening and again loosen, and no dice. The head is showing the impact efforts but it does NOT MOVE I was not sure if there was something else I needed to do befoe those bolts came loose. I'm stumped.

They could be frozen... try using some pb blaster, or liquid wrench...
They say if you cant take an elephant down with a 9mm, try a bigger gun...
Just keep in mind that if you break the head off, your pretty much F*cked...
