What cat to order?

I'm getting awfully confused mostly because of the lack of information given at some of these sites that we order stuff from. here is the set up I plan on running and I need help finding the right cat. I thought I found one on Jegs. It is a Magnaflow direct replacement, but there is two direct replacements and both on them list the inlet and outlet size as O.E.

anyhow here is what I plan to run
Hooker 2055 headers w/Y-pipe (I am assuming its a 3 inch outlet on the Y)

And either a Borla or Magnaflow cat-back I haven't decided yet. What I want is a stock style 3inch in cat and I am assuming it would have to be 3 inch out too. I am sure Magnaflow makes one I am just wondering if anyone knows the part number

BTW I called Jegs on the O.E. thing and the guy told me that it is the size of the original equip and when I told him they were two different sizes he didn't know what to do lol

The following direct-fit, 3" system will fit your requirements: Hooker 2055's (Jeg's 520-2055). Catco high-flow converter (Summit CTO-9118). Hooker catback (Summit HOK-16823HKR).

Could I use the borla or magnaflow instead of the hooker cat-back being that they are all 3 inch
