Default 1999 Cobra Exhuast Setup

I will be buying a 99 Cobra within the month and will be upgrading the exhuast. Below I have listed the setup I am looking to go with.

Headers-BBK Ceramic Longtube Headers
Mid Pipe-Mustang SLP X-Pipe
Catback-Magnaflow Catback or SLP Loudmouth I or II
Mufflers-SLP Loudmouth I or II
Catalytic-SLP High Flow Catalytic Converter or Pypes High Flow

Does anybody have a setup similar to this?
Is there any real difference from stock to custom mufflers and catalytic conv?
Is there no Mid-Pipe for a 99 Cobra on American Muscle.com, that fits with long tube headers?
The Mustang SLP X-Pipe just says (99-04) so?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

BBK are just fine. Kook's headers are crazy expensive.

lethalperformance is where I get all my parts from. Kooks are expensive because the welds are A+ and there 304 stainless steel so they will never rust. I've seen bbks and to me there crappy quality.

Yea, i think im gunna take ur advice n go with either kooks or american racing headers n catted-x pipe as well.
On lethal performance they got:
Kooks 99-01 Cobra 1-5/8" Headers with 2.5" Catted X-Pipe $1,433.42
ARH 99-04 Cobra 1-5/8" Headers w/2.5" Collector & Catted X Pipe $1,405.00
Mac 1 5/8" Ceramic Coated Longtube Headers w/Catted X-Pipe $885.00

Any difference between Kooks and ARH headers n mid pipe, quality and sound wise? Which would you pick?
Is Kooks and ARH mid-pipes top notch like their headers are?
And is MAC headers n mid-pipe anywhere near close to the other 2 brands?

you really dont need to drop another $500 just to get kooks or arh...i have seen many other brands, bbk included, wear and tear just fine. with that $500 youre throwing away, you could easily get 2 more mods for the car.
