Default Will BBK LT's and a TSP 3" ORY fit no problem?

Found some local good deals and want to make sure these will work together, as the TSP website says the ORY works with Hooker Headers and Pacesetter Headers.

http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/item...d=190&catid=45

http://www.jegs.com/i/BBK-Performanc...oductId=747937

Is $120 for the headers and $40 for the ORY a good deal? Straight bolt up and go on a 99 formula AUTO car?

Also, if I wanted to install a cutout, could I just put one in after the Y, so I'd just have to buy a single one, or would it be much better to put one right after each header?

Lastly, has anyone had good luck with any aftermarket cats to quiet the car back down? I want the power, and will have a cut-out for racing, but really want to keep the car quiet/not much louder than stock because of all the driving I do.

Thanks!

Personally, I wouldn't mess around trying to match up two unknown combinations. Besides the Y-Pipe that comes with the BBK header system has a MUCH better merge on it. I've heard a few bad things about the TSP y-pipe design. Don't know if it ever got revamped or not...

I think the HP difference between one and two cutouts is very little... so if your on a certain budget one should be sufficient for you.

Magnaflow spun cats are supposed to have a good proven record...

Hmm, maybe I'm missing it or jegs doesn't offer it, but I don't see a BBK y pipe available...

Thanks for the info.
