i think you can use any kind of converter as long is not shot...there's alot out there..just have it welded together with your header...

 

I don't mean to thread jack but don't want to start a new smog post. But in CA will most of the popular swaps be smog legal into say a d15 civic? I know that it has to be the same year or newer engine to be legal, but I haven't heard any specifics about california, thinking about a GSR swap but don't want to put down the cash if it won't be street legal.
