Default smog legal exhaust set-up?

so heres the deal. i need to keep my car "smog legal". i already have a SLP lm1 cat-back. here are my two options to keep it legal. 1) get LT headers and a shorty cated mid pipe, OR 2) keep stock exhaust manifold and just get o/r x-pipe.

which one would be louder, and which one would give me the most power.

hows a o/r x pipe make it legal? it shouldn't do that. i say long tubes and catted X... it will sound damn good.
