WD40 a 2-ft breaker bar and a bunch of swear words took care of all his nasty stock bolts.
We had to double up on the gaskets between the mid and front pipes though, not sure what was up with that but even torquing the bolts beyond Invidia's specs left a gap with one gasket. It looked like the sides of the flange weren't completely flush, but I couldn't tell for sure. Anyway, 2 bucks and change later, a second gasket took care of the issue.
System sounds pretty good, even with the catless front - I was expecting a raspy note but it actually sounded like my Perrin before I added the front/overpipe.

Perihelion - good meeting you man - love the cosmetic stuff you've done with the car, really pops on an SWP! Sorry we ended up taking more than the "worst case" 2-hour estimate I threw out there LOL. Let us know how you like the system now that you've driven it.
