There are 6 bolts that hold the cat in place...3 from the exhaust pipe
and 3 to the muffler. They'll likely be rusted solid and have to be cut
off. I was replacing my muffler (not my cat) and this was a real pain
as I couldn't gain access to the upper nut except by hand...i.e. no
power tools.

Your mileage may vary. Do you prefer to spend your time working on
this? Or pay someone else to spend the time?
