Gen 2 997 headers and sports cat

Just need some advise from those of you who are much more knowledgeable on tuning 997!

The original cat was integrated with the exhaust manifold, I had been looking at aftermarket products that will fit the PSE and my new primary replacement pipe. It looks like the only two manufacterer offer products that will fit are
Cargraphic (Offer 3 different options inc. one option which you exchange yours original headers with their rewelded ones---200cells)
Supersprint also do one but they didn't state how many cells. I know they use HJS on their website. They are more expensive!

I just wonder
1. Why Supersprint is so much more expensive?
2. How many cells does the original cat got? Do I pass emission if the cat
have less cell to filter greenhouse gas!
3. Does the ECU need remapping to avoid triggering the CEL light?
4. Have any one here use these manufacturer before?
5. Do I lose low down torque and power for gaining just a few ponies at
the topend?
6. Might be a daft question, will the car sounds louder?

Many thanks for your reply!
