Default Hi-flow cat

So, once I get the tranny back from the shop, I'll try to start the motor... The thing is, I bought an LS header for the B18C1 in my '95 Civic Sedan cause a lot of people told me that that header would fit both the motor and the stock cat.. well, it doesn't. It's too short and the flange is turned the other way. So, this got me to thinking - I see no reason, since I have to have the exhaust lengthened and the cat turned, to keep the stock cat..

Which one should I get? One for a civic, GSR, LS, or some universal one that you have to weld into the piping? I can get Random Technologies through Options so I know what brand, just not which one... any suggestions???

Thanks!!

Random Tech sucks. Go with a Carsound...email sales@ipsracing.com , Mike makes custom Carsounds like we used to sell.

Ok, maybe no one actually read what I said... should I get one for a GSR, Civic, or LS? I'm getting a cat not a testpipe, but thanks for the input.

I would go with the test pipe...I am in AL too..I haven't had any problem with the law. (I could really tell a difference with the testpipe...turbo spooled MUCH faster)
