id do it your self, i had to replace my exhaust manifold but i also had to take my cat out and honestly it wasnt that bad, all you need is like a two foot extension with a swivel and a deep socket and take the bolts off the manifold there should be 6.
first; take off the pipe that connects to the cat and the muffler(iv only got the pic closest to the cat but you'll find the other three bolts) oh dont forget to take off your sensor.
second; take the heat shields of the cat, third; then get your extension,swiver,and i think it was a 10mm deep socket and take the bolts off, its going to take some time but id rather wast time than money.
and then just throw the other one in and reassemble and your good to go.
just thought id show you what happend to me
my manifold broke right after the cat (while i was driving) now i paranoid that i bent a rod because i just drove the rest of the way home, but all sounds good.
this is what it looked like when i got it all out
