Default header question

I have an 02 z06 that I am looking to get some longtubes for. I am pretty well settled on a set of Kooks headers. My main decision regards the sizing of the tubes and x pipe. Kooks sells both 1 3/4 and 1 7/8 inch primaries and a 3x3 and 3x2.5 x pipes. I will be running cats. The car is stock, but will get a Halltech Stinger, plugs, wires, and possibly a thermostat. In the future the car might be getting a head and cam package, but that could be far into the future. What size would you guys recommend I get?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

I got the K@@Ks LT's 1 3/4" to 3" into the 3" Hi-Flow Cats into 3"x2 1/2" X-Pipe!

Absoloutly awesome set-up!
