Default RS catback fit ST170?

Hi all, new here, had a long trawl through the forums and failed to find this question answered anywhere.
I have the offer of a very good condition original complete RS Exhaust for just £50.
I'm trying to figure out if this is a direct bolt on to the downpipe and a couple of hours muttering and swearing at 20 year old nuts and bolts under the car
or whether I'm about to waste a day and end up regretting saying ill have it...
Anyone out there with any experience?
Cheers

I don't think it will fit straight on as the ST170 has that weird shaped cat that curls over the driveshaft
