By breaker bar I mean a socket wrench with 3ft handle. I also have a 4ft piece of pipe "cheater bar" that I can use to extend it. However, it gets pretty awkward to use by myself. I might take one more crack at it with a friend. If that doesn't get it I can drill into the head of the bolt with a tungsten carbide dremel tip. And then I should be able to break the head off. Can someone confirm that I can remove the cat with the demon bolt shaft still in there? I don't want to cut the head off and find that the shaft is actually threaded into the header side of the flange.

Thanks for the input so far.

Edit: I just got the driver side off. The passenger side is pretty well stripped. Going to have to cut.
