First covered the joint in wd-40 and let sit for 30min-1hr
Then after the cat-back was loose I vertically twisted it up and down till it came off (a friend makes this much easier- each person grabs one side)
Hope this helps, it can be done, just takes some effort.

I had to torch it. Heated it up for a little and it slide right out.

Ditto..
We used a Propane Torch to heat it up, and alot of wiggling.
