Only if you KNOW the guys who work there...
I had mine adjusted by Meineke after I got it, but I would trust them with my car anyday. I've known them for 6 years & between all of the tech there, they have ~75 yrs experience.

Go to a specialty shop
I have only heard horror stories from those that got ANYTHING serviced/installed by Midas. Also, some specialty shops will actually charge less. What takes Midas/Meineke 3 hrs to do may take the specialty shop 1 hr, making the labor charge considerably less.
I can't see an S4 exhaust install taking longer than 1-1.5 hrs at a muffler shop, given everything goes as planned. The install charge, based on LA auto labor rates, would be between $60-100.
