Civic HX Questions

I just purchased a 1998 Civic HX (had a 1999 Si until it was rear ended) and have a few questions for anybody that may have some experience or knowledge with this model.

1. Why does this car have two catalytic converters and can I remove the second one without any repercussions. I don't want to lose the lean burn mode or trip a CEL light.

2. It has a manual transmission and when stopped, it is tough getting it into first gear...it goes in but feels really clunky and I have to give it a good push.
