Default How difficult is it?

To remove the Intermediate pipe from the y pipe from my 2000 Camaro SS? its the stock exhaust system. I have the SLP LM1 waiting to be installed in a few weeks.

I used a torch to heat it while twisting and moving the stock exhaust back and forth. Took a little doing but it separated without any damage to either pipe.
