Just to clarify my last post...it took 4 hours of staring at the pipe and drinking beer and trying to find a way to take it out of there without cutting the stock system out of there, bolting the thing back on and deciding the hell with it, then coming back and taking another look at it. Once I decided to get an air-powered cutting tool on there with the smallest cutting wheel I could find, it took me about a half hour to do the whole thing. The tire iron from the factory "took kit" works great at prying the stock exhaust out of there
