Just installed a Flo-Pro DOC/DPF delete. What specifically won't come undone? There is no such thing as a bolt that won't come "undone", just what it takes to get it undone...

Spray the hell out of the bolts/nuts with WD-40 or other penetrating oil several times and let it sit over night. Hit it again the next day.

If that does not work, a Dremel and cutoff wheel will do the trick.

A common mistake is that guys will try and take the bolts out from the rear side of the flange the nuts are welded on the bolts come out of the front side i did it then figured it out. so if that is the case try the other side!
