Default Got a new exhaust but ?

I got a cat back exhaust for my 92 hatch but I have the stock header on it, a d16z6. But someone made a hack job of the piping so the flex pipe or whatever is ready to fall off. How much should this usually cost? B/c my local shop quoted me $125 to replace just that.

I was going to get a dc header, but what cat or resonator should I use?

Also where could I find a flex pipe cheaper?

Any info. and or pics would be appreciated.

Why not complete it by making all your piping 2.25. That way your cat isnt limiting the flow of air. I think magnaflow makes a 2.25 universal cat that should do the trick and that way your exhaust will not be limited by the stock cat.
