Default 96 GSR motor, 97 civic EX...what cat do I run?

I have a 96 GSR motor that my buddies and I just put in on Tuesday night. I'm currently running open header, and my ears want to explode.

I have a 2.5" Kamikaze header (looking for a stock exhaust manifold for now though), my stock 97 civic EX cat & stock exhaust, and a 00-01 GSR cat.

What do I need to run my stock exhaust with the GSR motor in a COUPE? Not a hatch, they have different exhaust lengths.

Thanks in advance.

Well I'm trying a little hybrid ghetto setup on Wednesday.

98 Integra LS exhaust manifold, with my stock EX cat & exhaust.

If that doesn't work, I have a 00-01 GSR cat to test fit as well.

the 94-99 GSR header is different than the LS...i forget which way, but I think its shorter.
