Default Simple Exhaust Question... Swapped Civic

Need a memory refresher here...

I have a GSR swap into my '98 Civic. The exhaust consists of a DC 4-2-1 two piece header to a short extension welded up to the stock cat, then out to a Tanabe racing medallion. I need to replace the converter, and I'm not sure what size I need...

My car was off the road for 3 years, and I honestly don't remember the piping sizes... I am planning on just getting a Carsound universal converter, and welding on the appropriate flanges, but I don't know how long the thing needs to be; and it's pretty damn cold these days in NY for me to jack the car up and measure...

Any ideas? Just basically need to know if this cat: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1 will fit with minimal problems??

Also, what diameter piping do I need?? I think I remember that it's 2"???

The link isn't working. But the piping will be 2". You can go with 2.25" if you want more than likely. The cat is probably around 18" though. It's been awhile for me too. haha.

How about this link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1

Only 12 hours left in that auction, so if link dies again, converter is:

CarSound Part # 94106
Inlet/Outlet Size: 2.50"
Overall Length: 13"
Body Length: 9"
Width: 6 1/2"
Height: 4"

Yeah that cat should work fine. 2.5in should give you more than enough flow. Any good muffler shop should be able to put that on for you, no problem..
