From scanning other threads on straight pipe setups, the key to no drone is to have the exhaust tip exiting about 1" behind the bumper. If you put it into the stock position, you will get drone.

Matching the downpipe to stock 2.5" pipe is mostly the issue that caused the bump in price at the shop. The extra time would be to fabricate a joint there to go from the stock pipe diameter to 2.5".
