Yeah, but I'm telling ya, a nice merge collector at the Y-junction is a worthy investment. Lots of the Y-pipes on the market have such crappy merges, with one pipe just slamming into the other.
If cost is an issue, check out the Flowtech header and off road Y. Same header as a Hooker, but with a flange at the collector instead of slip fit. About $300 cheaper for the LT's.

Decide on cats or not, I went with them (for legal & smell reasons). Your hookers should have O2 bungs (pre-cat), custom y w/cats and out to muffler. You'll probably get O2 sims for the post-cat O2's and you can tie those up anywhere so no extension.
Consider 3 bolt flange between LT's and Y pipe.

You still put your existing front O2's in the header bungs and you will still need two O2 sims for the back two O2's. You will also need 3 HD SS band clamps.
