F**king GRRRR!!

tried fitting it when i got home from work..

First off i couldnt drive up my ramps without wrecking my new front bumper so ended up on axle stands..

Secondly i couldnt get the existing manifold> Downpipe> Cat off without taking the full exhaust off

Thirdly stupid manifold bolts were knackered so most have round off and now one isnt fully in

Fourthly.. getting a bit long now.. The decat section and middle box piping are the same diameter and they dont supply a link section or cut the ends to get it to fit.. so had to bodge a smaller bit of pipe to sit inside both sections..

Fifthly I Ran out of exhaust clamps so its now sat on axle stands to be finished when i get some from work tomorrow..

now all my shoulder and back are aching from lying on my back under the car with like no space to do anything

Well Annoyed and not as straight forward as i would like
