Just be aware that changing exhaust gas flow may cause other issues if you car is designed to run with back pressure (like effecting engine performance due to changes in exhaust scavenging or may effect catalytic converter performance) , my car tripped some codes when I had a holey muffler for low catalytic converter performance on the post cat lambda sensor. Personally I'd rather keep everything stock as allot of design goes into balancing the exhaust system for peak efficiency and performance (some people fit a massive muffler, it sounds good but in reality they actually loose engine power).

15:43 that sound is one of my favorite sounds ever. It only happens when you heat the nut hot enough, and if you can hear that squeak that means you won. Also very proud of Chris for starting up BOTH vehicles without a muffler. A true professional.

Good video! I just have two tips I'd like to add that may help you and others. Heat the female side of the fastener instead of the head of the bolt. You want the female threads to expand away from the bolt. Second is to always start removing the exhaust at the rear. This way it maintains some more rigidity so you're not working on a part that's flopping everywhere. Same goes for assembly, start at the front and work backwards.

If you do not have a powersaw, I can recommend a pipe cutter chain. It is almost as fast as a powersaw and you always have enough space for it, which might be a problem with a handsaw.

I guess it's worth mentioning that it's harder than it looks like. So there's a chance that you may stuck with partially dissembled exhaust and having few rusted bolts that are not going anywhere. Combine this with axle stand/constant bench press position, much more angle grinder work and maybe bad weather conditions doesn't make that easier. If it's your first time, think of a plan B if you fail, and if there is a chance to find column lift or at least a pit, I'd go that way. Some pipes are trickier than others. Imagine that you have to cut off the flange, but there is no room for any couplers.

Chris. That is a spring flange on the Mazda to allow for movement. Think of it as a flex joint. Your fix will now not allow for that movement and will cause failures somewhere else along the exhaust.
