Exhaust removal for quiafe or wavetrac?

Noob question but, at some point I'm going to need to do an LSD in this car and I'm currently in the process of changing around my exhaust configuration. I was just thinking, will a section of the exhaust have to be removed to install the quiafe or wavetrac? I assume the rear end needs to be dropped, so the rear section of the exhaust will have to come out, but my exhaust might be fully welded from where the secondary cats were right up to where the resonator was removed.

We removed the rear section of the exhaust when we fitted the Wavetrac on my car.
I don't think you can do it with the exhaust in the way.

That's all I needed to know, thanks, I guess he'll have to build in clamped/removable sections

The stock exhaust needs to be removed from the cat back anyway as the right side is one piece from the cats to the muffler. The left side does have a joint between the resonator and the muffler. Might as well lay out your build somewhat the same.
