Default 01 Cat question?

Is it worth my time finding an 02-04 Z's single catted exhuast pipe(s) and replace my stock 01 Z's w/ the pup cats? Plus add an x-pipe?

OR, suck it up $$ and get an entire long tube header system to my Ti exhaust?

Feel free to elaborate...

I put an 02 Z06 H pipe on my 01 Z06. Sounds better. My best ET was when it was bone stock, 12.43 @ 114.9 mph back in 2001. This winter its gone 12.5 @ 115.3 mph at 73,000 miles on the clock. I'd say get longtubes, and x pipe no cats direct to the Ti cat back. This is what I'll be doing one day.
