Opinions on upgrade setup I'm looking at...

I contacted Maptun, and they quoted this to me:
$799 for re-mapped ECU ($200 less if I supply ECU) (247 HP)
$700 for 3" exhaust including sports cat and hole for O2 sensor (23 HP)
Total of $1300 (USD) plus shipping for 270 HP
Will take 1 - 2 weeks for me to receive everything.
Is this the best deal out there, for those who have either done this or have researched this?
Is this a good company to use, since I know nothing about them?
Besides exchanging my ECU for the re-mapped one, as well as swapping the exhaust system, are there any pitfalls I might encounter? I am good at DIY, so this isn't scaring me (yet).
How much louder will the car be, as compared to the stock exhaust?
I was told to use a piston-type BPV, and I have seen the name Forge used before. Where do I find one of these at the best price?
I am currently using a K&N air filter in the stock filter box. Will that be enough for this upgrade?
Thanks for your info!!!!
