GMMG - Which header/y-pipe combo?

Alright guys, I just got my GMMGs installed on my car and I LOVE them. However, I want to add headers and a y-pipe very soon. I've already decided on a catted-y over an ORY for emmission purposes (I've heard GMMGs sound better with cats anyways), but I have no idea which one to buy. Next, I've narrowed it down to long tubes and mid-lengths. Putting performance aside for a second, I want to be able to pass emmissions first and foremost, and secondly, GMMGs on a stock system already have some grumble, and I would like them louder, but I don't want them INSANELY loud to the point where I'll be getting pulled over left and right. So basically, does anyone know a good catted-y/header combo to go with my GMMGs?
Thanks guys,
Ron

Dynatech Supermaxx package, 100% Stainless steel, prolly the best ground clearance and it's catted. You'll want cats.

QTP or KooKs is the way to go...You already invested in a nice exhaust, get yourself some nice headers and Y as well...i got QTP LT's and Catted Y with my GMMG, and i love the sound...good luck..

Absolutely LOVE my GMMG & Kooks LT's (highflow cats).

BTW, the catted Y set-up sounds so much better than the ORY...No cats ruins the sound of the GMMG and makes it raspy/unrefined...
