Great question... I did this myself (ARH Long Kit + AWE Exhaust)...
I also did the BMR tubular motor mounts at the same time, which made the job alot harder, but made the header portion of the install a breeze. They slipped in from the bottom in less than 60 seconds per side... All at home on jack stands no problem.

TIPS if I may... based on my experience.

1. Get your entire kit Jet Hot coated first, and get the GREEN / GESI cats to keep the noise tolerable)
2. Keep the stock cat-back with valves for now. Any change later if you think it needs more...
3. Take your parts to a local exhaust shop for install. Have them replace the crappy brackets with V-bands for easy future changes, and a leak proof design (my ARH leaked like crazy)
4. I'd also have them weld on a bung for future wideband.

Food for thought.
