thts from just replacing ur cat BTW.

the cat is not a big restriction in the 2.2 exhaust. the whole thing is one big bottleneck.

if boosted, might be able to hold higher boost(might be wrong?), but you will see more gains without CAT, nothing noticeable

u will be fine doing it urself im sure.

not only that, i cant tell you how much more respect you gain for cars by working on them urself. You might even come to really enjoy wrenching on ur car.
