Default Aftermarket Down Pipe?

Ive looked on ebay and a few other places, are there any companies making an aftermarket downpipe? I'm basically wanting something that bolts on at the collector on the header and goes back to where the rest of the exhaust bolts up. This would be for a 99 SI and I'm running NA. This may sound dumb but what the hell, Ive made an *** of myself before

I'm not sure if anyone sells just a second piece to bolt up to the stock header. Why not just replace the whole thing?

well i just purchased the car and it doesnt have a header...yet
anyway, it has a very nice DC SS exhaust on it and im very happy with it. i just wanted to get a DC header and then if there was such a thing, a less restrictive downpipe. i didnt want to weld on a makeshift downpipe because i wouldnt have a flange to bolt the cat back exhaust to. plus there arent any shops around here with mandral benders....cheap cheap cheap

anyway, last resort will be just using a piece of pipe

A DC header will go right to the cat. So why would you need a down pipe after you buy a header?

so the DC cat back should be bolted up to the end of the header? isnt there a pipe between the header and the cat back exhaust that has the cat in it? im talking about a pipe somethign like this. maybe i just need to crawl under my car and look at what i have......
