Just got OBX header and need help on installation...o2 sensor comes out no problem but the last 2 are a B****...do they just pull out or are they both threaded? the furthest one on the bottom is insanely tight and the one that goes to the EGR( at least i think) is metal piping and that one is really tough to...Any suggestions besides that stuff that you pour on it that i already did.....?

Spray a healthy dose of PB blaster (that brand name, nothing else) on there 24 hours before, then spray again around 12 hours, then again at 6, then 3... lol... you get the idea... and then use a really big wrench. they are threaded but they get rusted and often they break instead of turning out. One thing that can help is using a torch to heat it up redhot and then try wrenching on it. on my friends we just cut it out and eliminated everything but his EGR, but if you have to do emissions that might not be the best decision.
