If you go to rawteks website and punch in year make model you can look at the delete kits they have for your specific car and can look at the instructions.

There are just too many to list....
I'm thinking the OP doesn't even have a "kit" purchased. Because I'm really super stumped as to what the comprehension block here is. It just doesn't make any sense to me. You assume certain things, if someone asked "how do I replace my brake rotors" you assume the person asking knows the wheels have to come off, but here we seem to have a follow up like "do I have to jack the car up?".

And I'm still not sure (since the OP hasn't offered) why this is being done in the first place, because normally that is usually answered with "because part X and Y are bad" and here the OP doesn't seem to know what part X even is.

A "delete" in the context of this engine, means EVERYTHING on the exhaust after the turbocharger gets removed. You can leave the muffler all the way at the back.

Dpf filter has failed need to be replaced stay why we doin the delete
Have you taken your VIN and plugged it into the Volkswagen website that tells you about diesel gate warranty? How many miles are on the car and what year is it? It may be still under warranty and you could get this replaced for free. I would look into this before you start cutting
