    Sorry to bring back an older post... But each time I need to remove one, I go to the local autozone and use their loan-a-tool program. Pay $50 for a "tailpipe cutter", drop the cat in 1-2 minutes, then return the tool for a full refund. Its just a chain with cutting wheels in it and 2 handels to squeeze. Very easy to use, and works great in areas where you wouldnt have the room for a saw blade to be moving back and forth.

    Wih as often as I rent these, I should really just break down and buy one seeing as ill start saving in gas. But its just been to easy to just go pick it up and have such a great tool to use for free. There was only one time they gave me one that was a little older, and it took a bit longer to cut, but every other time they have given me a lightly used, if not brand new one, which slices the pipe like butter. I wouldnt mess with exhaust systems without one.
