Agency Power with cats advice needed
Thinking to install Agency Power full exhaust with catalytic converters for lower sound and smell. Have few questions:
Is there a space to install cats, probably they are going to be 4" diameter.
What is the best place: right after headers or where original secondary cats were before?
Which in/out diameter should be: 2.75" or 3"?
In other threads were recommendations to put metal one from random technology (RT) or stainless work. Any other good options?
Thanks

Thanks for the input.
I ordered headers, middle section and cat back from Agency Power, which does not come with cats. Planning to replace Kleeman shorties.
What kind of resonators could be used if AP already has X-pipe? The main part of a resonator is the connection between two banks. Stock resonator has 2 paths - small diameter H pipe and the resonator body, which is connected to both banks through collection of small holes.
I currently have installed two Magnaflow 10416 instead of a resonator. It might not be good to install them with AP because of the 2.5" diameter. I tried before MagnaFlow 11386 with X-pipe as somebody mentioned and did not like it.
It would be better to install cats right after headers, if possible I think
