Mine was easy to fit.....getting the old one of was a bit of a slag.
Ramps help alot, mine used to clunk on the rear axel....but had play with it on some ramps and sorted it.
I hate exhaust fitting btw.....normally leave it to the greese monkeys...but if I have ramps I can use, i will do it myself....working on the floor sucks!!!!

Yes its very quiet, even with a decat.
My hangers are different because mine is a 16v (well was). iirc willy ones hang a bit different.
