Really no need for a guide but i will give one good hint

go ahead and put the inlet pipe on the muffler and the driver tailpipe

one of the flange bolts for the inlet is kinda tough to get at on the car ... having the driver side tailpipe on will let you hang the muffler by the hanger ... go ahead and slide your i pipe on the y pipe and put some grease on them where the connect ... the muffler will be loose enough to move up so you can rotate the i pipe up and into the inlet pipe on the muffler

it will all make sense when u get under the car and look ... anybody can do this

do yourself a favor and order some bandclamps because you will probably not be able to get the pipes back apart if you need to take it off to work on the car if you crank down on the ring clamps that come with it

well maybe a couple of good hints

I got the stock exhaust off without cutting anything. I did have to unbolt a few things though. Check link.
