Default 94 EX with LS swap what kind of cat?

I'm looking to replace my cat...I care about the environment and want to stay legal.

Can anyone recomend what kind of cat to get that would *preferably* bolt up to my 94 EX Coupe with B18B motor?

Thanks

With the stock B18B exhaust manifold I used a stock LS cat. The length was fine, but one of the flanges has to be turned. I cut the front flange off (2 holed flange), bolted the cat to the cat back, aligned the cut flange with the header, scribed a mark, and then welded the flange back onto the cat.

I hope this made sense.

I already have my stock cat, cut rotated and extended to fit.

I am looking for an aftermarket car that will provide better flow. Does any one know if there is one that will bolt up at all.

Also, any brands they can recomend...

Oh, ok. You can try Landspeed Racing (888-697-7333). They can make you a direct fit high flow cat. All you need to do is provide them with your setup, i.e. motor, header, exhaust, chassis and they will custom make you one. I think they have two style cats, a powercore and a street cat? I called to have one made and the tech person I talked to seemed to know what he was talking about. I ended up cancelling the order because of funds.

There might be other companies out there, but this is who I had experience with.

I believe the quoted me low 200 something. Actually not bad when you consider the price of an OEM one. Also, expect it to be about 5 days or so. I was under the gun to get my car going so I couldn't spare the time.
