can a catback be installed by my mechanic?

i know my mechanic pretty well and he gives me good discounts when i get my car fixed, so i want to bring a catback to have him install it, but would he have the right tools for the job?

if he has the tools to do any exhaust work he will. it doesnt really require all too many tools, so any mechanic should have the tools.

if nothing is welded on your exhaust, why dont you do it yourself? you just have to "bolt it on" to your cat and hang it with the existing hangers.
