Any muffler shop can take your old system off and put the Borla on in 30 minutes. Thats what mine took. They charged $100 here in Dallas Tx. Call around and find your best price. Mom and Pop shops are usually lower in price. Ask if they have done the job before.

It should be a 1 hour job max... What is the local shop rate?
They are simple to do.
put the car on a lift.
unbolt the old system. loosen the rear sway bar to drop it down out of the way., remove the gas tank shield
drop and rotate the old system
put the new system in place. push the sway bar back in place, re-torque it. put the gas shield back in, bolt the exhaust together loosely
align the tips... tighten it up.
