There is some kind of a locking bolt that bolts the exhaust on to the header. It looks like a regular 14mm pipe but with a 7mm bolt inside of it. Does anyone know how to loosen this bolt? Do i loosen the 7mm first, or will i just break it then? I cant reach the 14mm with a regular socket wrench because of the 7mm. Do i need a spesial tool?

yeah the studs have a hex head on them just to help put them in place. all you need is a 14MM deep socket . sometime the stud comes off with the nut. when that happens i usually just replace both
