Default Stock exhaust too short?...or is my car just 2 inches longer?

Alright...I've been tryin to get the exhaust situation straightened out on my 95 EX Coupe and none of my stock exhausts fit. I've tried with stock header, dc header, and no-name aftermarket header...all of which worked on my 93 Coupe just fine. I tried my cat from my last car also...but both are the same size. The B-pipe is 2 inches too short in the long straight section where the resonator is. If I bolt it up to the header and not the axle back...the first 90 hits the car. All of my B-pipes are the same length and worked on my last coupe. I'm clueless...

Yup...I'm positive. When it sits on just the hangers...it doesn't it hit the car...it sits perfect...but the flanges are like hella gapped. When I start to bolt the header and exhaust...there is hella tension and it rubs the car.

Hey Mike...did you guys work on David's car yet?
