hey all

i'm having a major problem trying to remove this mofo bolt... it's the INNER BOLT on top of the downpipe. the size of the bolt is 9/6 or 14 mm... i tried everything from pb blaster,heating it up, wd-40, hitting it with a hammer for more leverage. i'm fresh out of ideas and having spent three hours and trying to remove it and getting nowhere.... is pretty damn well... frustrating!

i need some advice or tips or something that could me. the next step i'm going to take is get an air compressor =/ but before i have to resort that i'd like some help so i can save that money =D. but if not then oh well.

all of this is to install my dc sports headers on my s14! can't wait... this one nut is stopping me.
