Well, I was removing my midpipe to install a new one, and I couldn't get to the top bolt of the flange. I went ahead and removed my cat to drop it with the midpipe, but in the process broke one of the spring bolts fastening the header to the cat. I cannot get the rest of the bolt out for my life, everything is so corroded. I'm due for inspection next month, I just wish I was already inspected and I would order a new DCRH right now. I'm thinking of just bolting the cat back up with the new midpipe temporarily with one spring bolt, just to get it on the road. I know there might be an exhaust leak, but what can you do. I might look into the megan shorty header for now, what do you guys think?

I wouldn't go buy anything just yet except for a cutoff wheel (if you have access to an air compressor) and some left handed drill bits. It might take some work but drilling it out is cheaper than buying a header!
