What specific Headers? Cats and Exhaust? to get...

Hello, Looking to upgrade Headers, Cats and Exhaust on my 2005 GMC Jimmy, I have read the forums, but I have not found headers that fit a 2005.
all the headers I have found say from 96-2001. Has anyone done any on a 2005?
I was told they are the same size but would like confirmation...
also
What Cats are people using?
What exhaust are people using?
I have seen what Christine_208 is using but they have a 1999, I doubt that would fit my 2005.

Looking for specifics of what to get and prices,

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

I really don't understand why a header for a 1999 Blazer wouldn't fit on a 2005 Jimmy.

I like the Magnaflow Cat and Y pipe and the Gibson Exhaust. I have Pacesetter headers but a 2001 so no idea if they fit your application

The guy on the phone just said they dont know about a 2005 application, Didnt seem very informative about it. I am still researching, I may just block the extra tube on the Headers... I am still learning.
