400 is a typical price for manifolds, cats and h-pipe.

If it includes the mufflers that's a great price.
I was going to go for this setup + Throttle body however, I am being told that the best way to go is Headers. Should I reconsider?

No, headers are the best route.
Z06 manifolds are good for a budget build though.
