What is the degree of difficulty to DIY? Time required?
What are the gotchas/related issues?
For example, if i'm in there yanking the pump, what hoses should I be looking at?
Any additional parts/goop needed?

DIY is not too hard. Be sure to get a Porsche water pump, there are many reports of failures of aftermarket pumps. At the same time that you do the water pump, I would recommend that you do the motor mount, a part that commonly fails on these cars at your mileage. It's not that expensive, a little over $100, and removing the motor mount makes replacing the water pump much easier.
