Headers?

I'm looking at getting headers but not sure what to get. I have limited funds and don't want to break the bank here. With that in mind I was looking at Mac or Hooker long tubes. I want to keep the cats, obviously they have to move though. The Mac setup is more but comes with new cats and Y pipe and all. The Hookers are cheaper but I would have to re-use the stock cats (not a problem) and get a some custom pipe work done to weld them in. Not sure what that would cost. Any and all coments/suggestions are welcome.

EDIT:
talked to some people and re-using the stock cats is pointless so I'm getting new cat and looking at the pacesetter LT's. By far the cheapest and people seem to really like them (those that have them anyway). Any comments/recomendations

If you every think you will modify anything on the car in the future then get longtubes. So many people get shorties then change then to longtubes. Do it once, it's alot cheaper. They are about 500 coated from jethot. But if not, then I would do Mac shorties. They are coated and are about the same money but you get the y-pipe with it. I have heard that the Pacesetter brand needs to be physically removed to change some of the plugs. Don't know how true this is though. I have installed pics of Longtubes in my sig below.
