How do I change the stock exhaust off my car?

Question

I recently bought a 2003 Toyota Corolla and I am planning to tune it up, one by putting on a catback exhaust. If anyone of you can tell me how to remove the full exhaust and/how to put on a new one would be great. Any links to other websites would be great to. Thanks

Without the standard OEM hangers (you may need to fabricate new ones), a torch and or hack-saw to remove the welded standard system you are in for a lot of sweat. None of these systems are a strictly bolt on procedure. If you look at your Toyota system you will notice there aren't many normal clamp joints. Where they do exist a torch will be needed to expand the outer pipe where ever it slides into another section of pipe.
