Default Header help please?

Hey, i've been looking at headers. I wanted to get of Greddy Headers or DC 4-2-1 ceramic headers... but there's a problem. I have a 1995 accord LX (f22b2). The problem is that the headers that i've seen have a 2 bolt collector flange and mine has a 3 bolt collector flage. Is there any that i can find with 3 bolt collector or is there a way to switch my 3 bolt collector to a 2 bolt?

I remember when i took my car to get an aftermarket exhaust manifold on, they actually welded my flex pipe to the sport where the 2 bolt would have been.

I feel like the two bolt system on the aftermarket headers, however, should somehow bolt up to 2 of the 3 bolts that you have on the flex pipe. It's kind of ridiculous that i have turbo charged my accord, but I never did my own aftermarket headers lol...

Okay so i think i found the issues i'm running into. For some reason, my exhaust is different. After the downpipe , my car has a flex pipe that goes into a 3 bolt in/out cat. The other type of accords seem to have a entender pipe( not sure what to call it ) after the down tube that goes into a 2 in/3 out flange for the cat. So do you guys think i can swap out my set up for the 2/3 flange set up? do you guys know anyone who has a similar issue... or do you think there will be problems if i try to switch to the other exhaust style for example, the lengths of the exhaust will be diff? let me know what you think plz
