My car needs some exhaust work. The right-side muffler decided to detach itself, so now I have half an open exhaust.

I'm getting the entire thing replaced with custom mandrel-bent stainless steel. I've decided on Hemi Super Turbos. My two questions are as follows:

If the car is otherwise bone-stock, and I drive almost exclusively on the highway, will I be better off with an X-pipe?

Also, remembering that it's bone-stock, should I throw on a set of equal-length headers? My reasoning is that I'm probably never going to work on the exhaust again, and if it's going to be in an exhaust shop, I might as well put _something_ on it. Do equal-lengths cut down on your low-end torque?
