Default Install on a x-pipe and exhaust system

I am thinking about buying an x-pipe and cat back (or axle back) exhaust set up and i am curiouse about three things...

1) which x-pipe and cat/axle back components should i buy for performance power and sound?

2) will i be able to install it myself? i installed an air intake system. i have jackstands and tools. i think it's a "bolt-on" project or is itcomplicated. are the pipes in a 2006 GT easy to get to? (to take out the old system and replace it with new pipes)

3) and the third is will i need to buy a new tune from a distributer of my sct tuner/flash device?

Thank you!!

I have a Magnaflow axek back. I will be getting the magnaflow x pipe later this week. Sounds nice.
Pretty easy instal of the mufflers. Basic bolt ons.
Really like the sound of Borlas if you want a louder tone.
The SCT tune is not needed with these ugrades.
