My brother has the magnapack catback on his car for about 1,000 miles and he wants to trade me for my Mac catback. My catback comes off easy because of the ball and socket fittings, however the magnapack has a bunch of clamps, last time i tried i couldnt get the pipes apart. what should i do? heat it up with a torch?

Thanks,
Ryan

If it's just band clamps or whatever, then just unclamp every section and start working on pulling it apart piece by piece.. may wanna use some PB Blaster or something to help it out
