Angry i hate the oem exhaust

i was installing my new exhaust today, so i was taking off my stock and that sucker didnt want to come off! i unbolted everything and took off the mid pipe in 10 mins, but the muffler didnt want to come off the hangers lol i spent an hour just trying to get the that freaking heavy piece of metal off . but i love my new exhaust! i feel complete again

They have a tool to take the muffler off the hangers. I watched the tech pop off my old exhaust in less than a minute using it. At home I just use a big screw driver and some force.

That's a sick looking exhaust. Can't wait to see it in person. But you should still take pics of it on the car right now and post 'em.
