If it is a misfire, it will throw a code. You might want to try and clean the MAF. If the Fuel Filter hasn't been changed in the last 30K miles, I would do that too.
As far as the exhaust...how handy are you? The old will most likely need to be cut off. The new can either be clamped back on or welded. It is much easier if you have a lift, but can be done on your back with it jacked up. Just depends on your skill level and amount of money you want to drop into it.
