For those of you who were following my other thread, that bolt is now MY bitch. The RB turbo back is on... When we looked at my old catalytic, it was no wonder why I was only registering 3 pounds of boost. Well, all I can say is, WOW! The car absolutely FLIES now... And the exhaust is so much quieter than my straight pipe/rusted out muffler approach from before.
Thanks again everyone for all your advice.

It was actually just basic stupidity. Any of you who have done anything to the exhaust where it attaches to the turbo know that there are little metal prongs that are bent down to cover the nuts... Well, on the first two that were removed, those little prongs were missing... It finally dawned on us that the one we were having a hard time with had two of them bent over it... So, with the help of a very long screwdriver, we bent them back. Less than an hour later, everything was bolted up and good to go.

There is only one downside to this story... My car makes so much more power now that my clutch is slipping... I think I'll leave that to a shop though.

Edit: On a side note, I would like to add that the frickin' stock Y-pipe and mufflers weigh more than the ENTIRE new system... I really couldn't be happier.
