i havent heard a megan that i know of(dont normally ask people what they have for exhaust). I will say tho that Megan's quality isnt that of Skunk2. The Megan header I have wasnt designed all that well(didnt line up all too well, and they way it was designed made some of the bolts near impossible to get to).

To go back in time i would have dropped the money to get a GReddy header.

No its not that hard, if you dont have a lift its going to be a pain in the ***. The only "hard" part is that the bolts are usually in rough shape and sometimes break off.

a exhaust shop could put it on you quickly and cheaply
