Right I get you. So the underground pipe would go from old soil stack all the way around to directly under where the nee toilet would be and would dig thf trench so there is the required fall? Then would come up from the ground and attach to the new pipe up the wall that then has the pipe...

Right so you mean once the new ground pipe is in it feeds out to a new external stack that goes to the new toilet? If so the only question is getting the new soil pipe over to the wall where the new toilet will be
