Default FATHERS QUESTIONS.please answer asap

hey again, about to order my magnaflow 12266 Buy MagnaFlow Stainless Universal Performance Muffler 12266 at Advance Auto Parts
trying to do it by tomorrow night because it will be 15% off haha. but my dad needs to know a few things before he lets me buy..

how do they connect the muffler to the exhaust tips? do they add on extra bent on pipes, if so how much do you think installation and pipes at a muffler shop be?

You better have a muffle shop do it there's gonna be some welding and mounting that needs to be done and depending on what you muffler you got there going to have to fit the exhaust tips on so that they properly sit on the car.

Unless you know how to weld I wouldn't change it. How much was the muffler?

It might be a steal but you will definitely have to have an exhaust shop install it. Do you know if it will definitely fit?

Okay well the guy on youtube that I sent you just told me to go with 12266 and I liked the sound so I bought..
heres the one I bought:Buy MagnaFlow Stainless Universal Performance Muffler 12266 at Advance Auto Parts

and heres another that I found with different outlet size...

they are both part number 12266 but one has a 2.5" outlet and the other has a 2.25" outlet, does this matter or is it okay since its just the outlet? please answer ASAP because if I ordered wrong one maybe ill still have time to cancel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
