Default Need Some Advice with a Setup

I have a 1998 Camaro Z28 so far i have done the EGR tube mod, and the Free Ram Air and a Flowmaster 80 Series Catback
I am looking to get a stall converter, Headers, Cutout with a mellow muffler, etc.
I will probly go the N20 route, so if i get a stall converter, i am looking at a 3400-3800 this is my daily driver, i have 3.42 gears on the way from a friend of mine, currently i have 2.73s yuuuck , I want a Converter that is going to give me great performance but also be ideal for a daily driven car, is a 3800 too much for a DD or is that going to be boarderline or what? also do u get more performance from getting an X-Pipe with bullets or a cutout with a mellow muffler? If someone could help me on choosing a great setup that would be much appreciated.

Get rid of the flowmaster, it sucks. I have a 3200 stall in my car and it is great on the street. For the mods that you plan on doing, I don't think that you will need duals, go for the loudmouth, I love mine!
