Exhaust related question for my local friends!

Ok, so I just got some new brullen headers and cat, YAY!!! Currently I have a stromung muffler and a stock midpipe.

So, I want to put the headers and cat on my car, drive to the exhaust shop and have them make me a midpipe, BUT, I don't think the cat will bolt to my stock midpipe since the cat piping is 2.5" and the midpipe is 1.75" (i think). What can I do about this? I could just have the exhaust shop bolt my headers and cat on for me after they make the midpipe, but for some reason I don't have a good feeling about that.

I plan on going to Marco muffler in orangevale... anyone got comments on them?

Really? Would they like to do business with some Nissan owners?

I'm pretty set on just going over to Marco to get the midpipe made... the only question is how I'm going to bolt the cat and midpipe together before I head over there.

You trust them to fab you a midpipe but not install headers? Why are you going to this shop?

I'm sure they could install the headers just fine. They've done great work in the past... I just need to save money wherever I can which would mean installing them myself if at all possible. Unfortunately, I can't fab myself a midpipe

Any idea if this type of thing requires an appointment or can I drop in or what? What's the best way to contact the shop to talk to them about this?
