louder exhaust note, one of the best HP gains from any bolt-on mod available out of intake/HFC/CBE

The Berk's will make a significant difference. Your mechanic is an ID10T...

The stock cats are not high flow. Did you buy this car used? If so it's possible the previous owner could have changed them. Or the mechanic could just be dumb.
