high flow vs standard flow cats, there really isn't much of a flow difference. if you plan to keep cats on the car i would suggest jsut getting whatever brand and style will cost the least.
a single 3incher would cost you some exhaust flow over a pair of 2.5's, it would be a fairly significant amount.

I went with a normal Catco 3" cat on the passenger side and a Pypes compact 3" cat on the driver's side. The Pypes cat had a small heat shield on it vs these cats you posted that don't. I think the Pypes cat is a little smaller too. I put them on my old 96 SS with Pacesetter longtube headers. Here's a picture of the setup I had. The driver's side cat crossed under the car and I wrapped the fuel lines and brake lines with header wrap and never had any problems.
