There are alot of options for headers man. If you are on a budget definitely pacesetters. There is also hooker, and the more pricey headers like ARH, Kooks.

As for catback there are so many. your best bet is to listen to sound clips and see which sound you like best. But the popular choices are magnaflow, hooker, GMMG, or duals. I think i should have taken hooker over magnaflow, but i plan on getting rid of my magnaflow for true duals.

Hooker+LT's. No rasp with cats. Quiet at idle, mean at crusing speeds, and loud at wot. Best sounding combo with long tubes imo. Once I added long tubes and a 3" y pipe it got mean as hell. However If you are keeping the stock manfiolds I would go with gmmg.
