Not sure about the join, but when I did turbo back, all you need is a socket set and a big-old flathead screwdriver. IIRC, (somebody might correct me) cat-back is straightforward as no shaft removal and you are just fixing it to the downpipe via nut/clasp thing.
The hardest bit is getting things in/out of the rubbers for the exhaust mounts.
Just make sure you go as high as you can on your stands so you have plenty of room.
