well what you getting full system? you will need wd40 to loosen and to spray on the rubber hangers so they slide on and off easy, a spanner and socket set and screw drivers and a hammer just to gently tap the exhaust off the turbo. Just make sure the car is safe when its in the air

will be cat back only, not getting DP till next year  any easier

yeh as above, be safe, the hardest part is/ can be getting the old parts off as the clamps can squash the pipes making them hard to remove, bit hammer should sort though  

i think i would pay someone to do mine just for the safety side, and its bloody cold out

slightly easier as the downpipe bolts can get stuck in

cat back i could do in 15 min   just undo the the clamp in the middle and spray wd40 on the rubber hangers and it will come off

its like doing the front bumper just find all the screws in the arch and jack the back end up and put on stands. if you were closer i could give you a hand for the mirrors

Should not be too much of a job Joe. The rear bumber is easy to remove I did it a few times on my last MKV, its only a ten minute job. As long as the standard cat back comes off ok it will not take you long at all!
