1. Unbolt wherever you can unbolt
2. Appropriate something to cut with for the rest (Sawzall, torch, etc)
3. Remove old stuff via methods mentioned in step 1 and 2
4. Install in reverse order sans cutting

Best advice I can give you is that if you don't have access to a real torch and you see clamps on your old exhaust then buy all new stuff. If your system is welded together then you need to hope you can cut off with enough pipe to re-connect or you will also be buying new stuff.
