Not trying to hijack this thread but I thought I would chime in and maybe help a little.
Using a impact wrench is HIGHLY recommened. I also found it useful to have a impact socket with U-joint in it. I couldn't get socket dead on without it and almost rounded off a few of the nuts while trying to get off.
I installed this exhaust by myself and found it to be really easy. Before attempt to do it, spray some PB blaster or similar product on studs coming out of convertor pipes. Trust me on this tip.
I also sprayed WD-40 on the hanger to make them easier to slide the old muffler off and new one on.
I actually used a jack to hold up one side of the system while lining it up the bushings onto the hangers. Once you get it hung on them lining up the studs if a piece of cake.
One more tip, put the gaskets on the convertor pipe using the 3 studs to hold it in place. Very easy to do.
