You used a breaker bar by chance? Some times a good tug with a long breaker bar is all it needs. If you have but still cant, a grinder to cut the bolt off might be needed.

oh ok so grinding the bolt would not hurt anything or cause exhaust leaks

Torch to heat the bolt and use vise grips to get them out or cut them...then replace with grade 8 bolts or take it to a exhaust shop to have them take out the tough bolts.
