I will second what NCwayne said. Splitting the nut is the only sure way. I have a nut splitter that works great if you have room. It has a hole in it that you place over the nut and then tighten a screw that pushes a blade into the side of the nut. The next best way it to use a acetylene torch to heat the nut red hot,fast. Propane torches heat slower and that heats the stud too. You want the nut to expand more than the nut. So you have to heat the nut fast. Then while the nut is red hot use a six point socket on it to remove it. I often have to use a metric one that is a little smaller than the English size. Those old exhaust studs and nut rust away. I also have a set of nut removers from Snap on. They are basically just a left hand internal sparling taper that bites rounded off nuts.
