So I'm about to pull the trigger on the corsa exhaust and am wondering how easy the install will be with.myself doing the job using a.Jack and some Jack stands. Has anyone installed on their own?
 
I helped a mechanic buddy put a direct fit Magnaflow on my Fusion.  If it's anything like that you shouldn't have any trouble.  Don't tighten the clamps as you go.  Just snug them up so you can tweak it a little for alignment.  Then crank them all tight.
 
jack er up ....put her on stands and have a friend help you .....  easy install .... as stated by DJ snug clamps but dont tighten fully till its all on . OH  ..... and a six pack wouldnt hurt either ......
 
We'll trigger pulled with 2 day shipping definitely will solicit the help of a friend with a 6 pack..can't wait to get it. Next will be the cai and probably some tint
 
Will do.probably won't get to it till Saturday dependant on are bipolar weather. I don't have a heated garage so Ya. Have some space heaters though
 
I did myself, not to hard at all. Of coarse a extra set hands will help. System is pretty straight forward and requires basic tools. The hardest part I had was getting the 1st section that bolts flanges to slip into the 2nd section. They are both 2 pipe sections, I put these together out from under the car as it was just much easier. Everything was a breeze. Only about a 1.5hr job.

Just an update on this I wound up taking it to the shop to install . Had to squeeze underneath the  car because the jacks only went so high and could not get the nuts off to disconnect as it was around 19 degrees and my garage is not heated I decided it wasn't worth the fight
 
With exhaust note yes it is deeper and a tad louder at idle especially when cold. As for any changes in overall vehicle dynamics at idling nothing has changed.

Where did you purchase the Corsa exhaust system from? Reason I'm asking is because I'm doing a little price shopping on that same system you had installed.
