Longtubes. 
The ZR1's will actually slow you down.
$900? Coated pacesetters and TSP ORY is only $500 last I checked, and install can easily be done yourself on jack stands with basic hand tools. Add in a basic tune or O2 sims and O2 extensions and that's it. Do you already have a cat-back? Where are you located? You could probably get somebody to help you install them for a lot less than a shop would charge.

i was going to pay 250$ for install....... so u think i coudl install them my self pretty easy withought a lift? i have some ramps i can put the car on..... what all else would i need for the header install besides header, y-pipe, and cats (have to run cats) and im going to invest in the locking header bolts. and last but not least...... i have rumbler exhaust, how will this setup sound all togeather? will it be too raspy? will it make it a lot louder?

You might end up coming on here asking how to either quiet your exhaust down or get rid of the rasp. Cats will go a long ways towards making it sound good, but some still end up buying a different muffler to weld into the I-pipe, like a borla XR1.
Install can be done yourself. You will probably need a nice jack and stands to get the front end even higher. You have to get the car pretty high. Do a search for header install, there should be a link or two to good writups.
