I forgot about a MBC. Get a hallman. They are very consistant compared to other MBC's. You will pass emissions if you keep a cat on your car. It will pass with or without cams. Also cams will not harm your motor in anyway. Most people on this site are cammed. they are one of the best bang for the bucks you can do to your car.

HKS is just a company. Yes they make good power but the S1's make better power. I am friends with 4 Wheel Slide the tuner and I am with him on most tunes. Driven and compared a lot of them. Do a little search on both cams. You will find it easy to make that decision. Don't ask people with the cams due to they will all tell you that those cams are the best. They are gonna tell you that because that is all they have driven. I have driven too many evo's for me to count.

Also Any 3 inch downpipe will work. Megan is cheap and good quality.

GSC S1 cams are what you want. I am not too big on the types of cats but buschur probably has them.

You dont need anything else besides the cams for a cam install? But like others have mentioned, it depends on your goals. If your going to stay on the stock turbo, get the hks 272's.
Get any downpipe you want. Helix and megan are cheap in price. Id throw on an 02 housing if your going to run a test pipe too.
