Default exhaust help,i am stuck.....

i was taking off the old exhaust yesterday,and we had a bit of bother getting the turbo bracket off from under the car,it was getting wedged on the antiroll bar and the drive shaft,so it was a case of turning the wheels a bit and just moving it a bit at a time,any way we got the exhaust off,but i am guessing that when i go to put the new one on that the turbo bracket will be even bigger than the standard one,and it will be even more arkward to get it on from under the car,dont realy want to take the antiroll bar off so is there another way to do it????????or can u cet the first part of the exhaust on from the top???

any help would be great........

presume you mean the flange? best bet is to use a pit or proper lift when fitting then you can get a better angle on the front pipe and thread it through,then slip the flange joint through the gap,its a very tight squeeze though so you will prob have to rotate the driveshaft still to help it on its way
