stuff the cat mate, just bash out the old one. no cat is better than any 'high flow' cat. just take the backing off the cat where the exhuast connects up, smash it up in there with a crow bar or something then start the car and rev it a bit. all the **** should come flying out, and keep on doing this procedure until no more crap comes out when u rev it. instant kw. i was quoted $350 for a 2.5" custom bent lukey zorst with lukey headers and a lukey highflow muffler all fitted from profix. extra $50 for a 3 inch dumper. but then again, its not wat u know.....

He is most probably recoomending a 2 1/4 inch system becuase on an n/a you need a little back pressure or you lose precious torque.
