Your exhaust system is pretty much in 4 parts:
Header
Cat
Flex pipe
Exhaust
Not upgrading all to equal piping leads to bottlenecks in the system. Is it a major deal? No it just means you are not going to get the most out of your upgrades. I ran with just a magnafloe exhaust for a couple of years and loved it, then added a JBA header last year.
I bought a red car, because everyone knows red is the fastest.

When i put my MBRP on everything i need came in the box, bolted up to the stock flex pipe no prob, so i'm assuming that if your going to their shop to have it installed they should have everything you need. Enjoy the exhaust when its done, sounds sweet, i love mine.

I ordered mine straight from MBRP.

As for the install smith, be prepared to do a lil bit of work to get the stock exhaust off. The bolts that hold the stock exhaust to the flex pipe tend to rust and need to either be ground off or cut off, i just brought my car to speedy and they cut the bolts off for me for a round of coffee's after thats done tho the install is pretty straight forward. If you've got any questions just let me know.

I did mine myself, it wasn't that difficult, you just have to be prepared for some stubborn bolts, have lots of wd 40 ready

Did you call them directly? If nothing else, the backlog is directly attributable to their atv / diesel exhaust sales and not the Focus directly. UNLESS our 2-man trip down in April spawned a mass increase in sales :D :P

Did you speak with Ed directly? Just give him another call and ask for an ETA. Did you ship it via Purolator or Canada Post?

I ordered mine about 3 weeks ago... and I'm still waiting!

This will be the end of week 3! I have an install day on friday, but looks like I'm not going to have the exhaust in time for that.... oh well... something to do in the future!!
