ls swap in eg...which cat and radiator hose do i use?
im finally gonna get my car back and running and im going ls this time. it has stock header and i have a greddy evo catback. i cant run a test pipe yet cuz i have to go pretty much straight to the ref cuz i gotta smog my car in october so what do i do about a cat? do i have to go to an exhaust shop and have it extended or can i a stock cat and have it bolt up with out any problem?
also which radiator hose would i use for a civic half size radiator?

use a 94-95 cat converter and the 94-95 upper hose and bottom also. Um what model is the eg? mine is a VX and I had to swapp out my fuel pump. well I think it was just bad. But yea and you gotta repin the o2 sensor to a 4 plug. I still have to do that.
What I did was just bought a hi flow "fake" cat from ebay for like 30 bucks. I'm looking for a stock one cuz the hi flow is too damn loud and illegal. anyone has an offer?

i had a ls swap in my coupe before
i used the stock cat from the ls
the swap came with dc headers
so with the dc headers and a oem ls cat i still used my thermal exhaust

Provided your exhaust didnt move location of the stock cat then it should bolt right up and you should be fine with the ref. I used my stock cat and passed.

Why don't you just buy it for a ls motor cause that's what you have, makes sense right?

it shouldnt because why would they make a aftermarket header that is 2'' shorter than an oem one? does not make much sense ha?
i know the gsr one is shorter than the LS could possibkle have the wrong manifold?
as long as you have a LS manifold on your LS motor with a LS cat then you should be fine cause you said you had a ex correct?
