Default do i have to mod my exhaust what a ls/vtec swap?

okay guys hopefully if everything goes ok i might drop my motor in this sat.
my question is will i have to get my exhaust modified to fit w/ the ls/vtec motor?
my car is a 98 civic ex i got the tanabe rm on it so will i have to take it to a muffler shop to get it longer or shorter?(i got dc headers 4-1)
ok so later on i wanna get just a stock exhaust (sleeper)but i'm going to buy either a free low cat or just stock cat for a si so it'll bolt straight up to the headers and bolt up to the stock si b pipe and muffler.
oh yeah who makes a good free flow cat? is it bolt on?(don't like welds looks kinda cheap to me)what price range i'm i looking at?will it sound nasty w/ the stock si exhaust?

Cool! I'm bout to swap my LS/VTEC in my 00 EK hopefully late next week too! What shiftlinkages are you using? I still gotta get those, some mounting pieces, axles, a starter, and a distributor. Let me know if you find out about to exhaust problem, I've got a Thermal.

Thanks
