I think you might have to because the Integra test pipe will make your mid pipe not fit right. What length is the test pipe? I am running a GSR 4-1 header to a 2.5 Integra test pipe and I needed a Integra mid pipe. It was a tight squeeze though.

Not knowing the sizes, I would use whatever exhaust is cheaper and just cut the test pipe to fit and reweld it.

From the information you've provided, it's impossible to tell, but I'd guess there's a 89% chance that it'll require modification

get a catback thats supposed to fit the car. only thing you will probably have to modify is the length of the cat or testpipe. which is cheaper then getting a full exhaust custom.
