Default Will this setup cause rasp problems?

Ok so i am planning on doing hooker longtube headers with a texas speed catted y-pipe with a corsa catback exhaust on my 2000 trans am ws6. I have heard that using a catted y-pipe is much better than using an or-y because it cuts down the rasp a lot when you have high flow cats. I also heard that it has to do with the merge on the y-pipe. What do you guys think of the setup, will it cause rasp? Do I have a good merge on my y-pipe?

^pictures of the y-pipe and the y-pipe merge^


Thanks for the help,
Jim

Sounds like Jimmy isn't getting the answer he wants to hear, or wants somebody to make up his mind for him.
