Only one way to find out, Dude! Go (to several of them if you have that option) and ask them for an estimate.

dam...i got to set a day aside for this then...i noticed our OEM piping doesn't have any crush bends...does that mean i can use the stock piping and just take the muffler out and get the same hp gain or no, when i was under my car from the back i didn't see any crush bends it looked like straight piping except that the muffler ...or i think it was the muffler, it was real close to the engine.

Front to back: Manifold/header/pre-cat, cat (2 bolts/nuts,) resonator, muffler, tailpipe.
Sure! I don't see why you couldn't use the stock piping and either remove or replace components....?
Oh, and the resonator doesn't really hurt anything, but might help with harmonic tones and back fires, so I would consider keeping it in the system. On the other hand, a high-flow cat can be a nice addition!!
