Ken - MBRP is indeed doing the install. I don't have a garage for the -20C and below weather of late. That and I lack the required patience. :D
Daniel - I was going to let them, but I'll take the weekend to consider it. I need to confirm on Tuesday with them anyways. Good point.

Bottom line is this:
1) For '07 the MBRP exhaust as-is requires removal of the 2nd cat for it to be a bolt-in install ...
2) they wouldn't / couldn't give me an exact quote to modify and install the exhaust to work with the 2nd cat, but would only say it could be as much as 6 hours @ $75 per ... considering that all-in I paid less than 280 for the exhaust, a $450 charge for installation seemed a bit much.
The box is still in my garage so I hope your experience is better than mine - I would still prefer them to do the install but at a reasonable price.
