    Have you got the correct bolts? they should be bolted to the turbo elbow with 2 x 13mm nuts on it. This leaves you, ( 0n the other end of the bolts) 2 x long 2" bolts sticking down. You should then be able to mate the exhaust to the turbo down pipe, then slide the clamp bit along then over the 2 long bolts, then springs on and finally 2x washers then 13mm bolts.

    Top bit done,it's the long bolts with the springs where the problem is,It all Lined up,it's just getting bolts though the holes and holding everything in place,guess its would be easier with a standard exhaust as its smaller and have a bit more room.
    Do you offer the bolts down over with springs to the bottom,that's the way it was when I took the old one off.
