It says that you cannot use the stock headers, is that correct? Wouldn't the cost skyrocket then?

Yeah.

So, on one car I have stock headers, ess hfc xpipe and an evolve valvetronic exhaust.

Fully catless and don't look back.
You won't regret it...people over exaggerate the smell.

I don't know how you can bear it.

With HFC, it still smells bad if the car is on and you're around the exhaust. I could never do catless... besides the illegal aspect of it

How can you not like the smell of raw fuel!+orgasmic exhaust note
I barely smell it and it's only noticeable when I come to a stop.

I do feel bad for the electric cars that go behind me

I'm definitely with you regarding the exhaust note! And I like the smell of gasoline, just not after its gone through an engine
