what have you tried?

spray it down with some WD40 or pb blaster and try to yank it with pliers.

Or let it warm up and try it when the tailpipe is hot.

In addition ...... Bubba says to rap it gently with a hammer, then grab it with a pair of vice grips and wiggle, try to twist and pull........:D

Looks like it has been in there for awhile. It is the silencer best option is likely some form of penetrating oil and get it warm. It will likely stink but that combination should get it out of there for you. Another option would be use a good pair of vicescripts to clamp onto the inside edge of the silencer then gently tap on the vicescripts to see if that will get it to loosen up.

When you put it back in ...... smear a little Vaseline on it ....... oh, wait, what were we talking about ......??

What I would suggest is that you tuck them away in your trunk, so they could be used if you find yourself tiring of the rumble on long trips ..... ;)
