best v6 exhaust combo?

ok here is my situation people....i have been listening to all the videos on the v6 exhaust thread for awhile now and like most people cant make up my mind. i know i want this combo:

LT headers
High flow CATs
CAT back piping
mufflers

now, would it be better to go with a LT header/high flow cat/exhaust piping kit and then an axle back kit?

or.....a CAT back exhuast kit and then a LT headers/high flow CATs kit?

any opinions are awesome with me. my ears are WIDE open

BBK LT headers(ordered)
BBK High flow cats(ordered)
Magnaflow catback
SLP loudmouth II(own) sounds better than MRT 2.0, but most people on here buy MRT because everyone else did. "followers"

dont magna flow cat backs come with muffs?

doesnt the BBK headers/hgih flow cats kit come with the cat back piping?

are you hearing a lot of rasp with the LTs and SLP II?

yeah, catbacks already have mufflers, kind of a waste to cut off the mufflers for slp's, or any muffler for that matter. and i also believe the hi-flow cats came with the long tubes.

BBK LT headers w/ high flow cats (I'm waiting on mine but they shipped today), SLP Loudmouth exhaust (Loudmouth II and Magnaflow are too quite IMO) then pop on a good intake for good measure (I went with Airaid and am waiting for the beta of their V2 tube to arrive). Very happy so far.

looking at the picture (i know those are v8 headers obviously) and reading the description it says it comes with headers, high flows, and x-pipe...is that what you ordered? kinda looks like header, high flows and cat back to me....or ami wrong?

This confuses me as well. So you bought a cat-back and chopped the mufflers for another axle back? What was the point of that? Could've saved a lot of money just buying a new mid x-pipe and using the SLPs..... Send some of that money my way if you've got that much to blow

Personally I believe the shorties sound better on this car. That being said, the BBK setup does sound very nice as well, just not QUITE as good as the DT shorties I've heard. Of course these are all videos, haven't had the oppurtunity to check it out in person.

magna flow actually does come with mufflers. i was wrong.
the bbk lt's are simply long tubes and cats. bolt up to the existing catback tubes.
slp II sounds amazing.

No, i ordered mine from phastek. I just wrote Sean to confirm what exactly comes with what i purchased, so i'm waiting on an answer, but i'm pretty sure it comes with high flows and x-pipe.

and i ordered the ceramic:
