Question Exhaust Change

Hi all,

Just got a new afterburner B/B from scoobyworld yesterday very impressed with the quality . My question is I was going to change it myself but the two bolts have seized over time, is there any easy way to get the bolts off, have tired warming the car up thinking the heat in the exhaust will help still no go .

Any advance welcome

I soaked mine in WD40 for 5-10mins and then I had some high ramps i could reverse up to get well off the ground which allowed me to use a 3 foot bar on the socket which was enough to break the seal the nut had with the rust
