If you have to go cats and you want the performence of the cut-outs, the TSP rumbler/LM will be good (IT WILL BE LOUD, even with the cats)

Ferocity, I'm at the same point you're at- my true duals (very similar to yours) are coming off in need of clearance.
My setup will soon be:
QTP HVM LT's, QTP Dual Elec Cutout Y, SLP 2OTL.
If you need cats, just put one cutout in the I (elec. preferrably).
Make sure you go with a Y-pipe that has a nice merge collector (Flowmaster 4" is a sweet piece).
I haven't actually ever heard the Flowmaster catback, but if you like the sound of it, go ahead- as you point out, that's what the cutout is there for.

Well, I am thinking Flowmaster because I need something that will be quiet when I need it to be, and I already have the muffler, so it's convinient. I will do my best to fit the cutouts before the cats. I had MAC's, ORY, and a cutout in the i-pipe and it wasnt loud enough. I think cutouts after the cats would be pointless, except for more flow, which the cats restrict some anyways....
Duals are not possible. 2.5" are way to expensive to do the way I want them to be done, out the back.

It would be tight but should be fine either way. You want quiet go with Magnaflow catback, nice rumble not very obnoxious, but straight through so little restriction. Sounds like combo that would rival true duals.

I don't mean to step on any toes...
BUT 3" catted y and cutouts. You still won't have any clearance.
If your car wasn't lowered, this setup would be awesome and you'd have decent clearance.
I'd be willing to put cash on it that you'll have 2" to 2.5" clearance max at your lowest point (cats).
I hope that you get this all to work out for ya..
