H&M are good, but pricey. Pretty sure they include a built in cat.
There are only 2 reasons for going stainless: 1. Looks (but after about 5000km, even the shininess of SS goes away 2. They last a bit longer (about 10 years or so). But given that they are nearly twice the price of paccies, and paccies seem to last forever anyway, I personally don't think SS is worth the extra cost.

HM Headers, doesn't include a cat.
They can be had for about $450 now off ebay. Which is about on par with the 4480s. And about $50-100 more than the 4499. Theres only a few on here that run them.

Unless you want to keep polishing them for shows ect, go for the steel ones,as long as you dont let crap build up at the pipe junctions,they will last a long time.
