I vote yes. It will cut down on the rasp you are going to get with the y-pipe setup. Get some good flowing metallic Magnaflow cats.

No cats, I dont have to much rasp and love the sound of my car when I put pedal down . Funny I started a thread with almost the same title about a year ago. I was worried about how loud my exhaust would be without the cats. I think I made the right choice but each set up sounds different. Alot has to do with catback.

Mine had a boat load of rasp with a 222/226 cam and no cats. I would think that a high flow cat would be something to look into.
