Your best bet is to just hang it up under the car and take a look. I did this and it was different from what I was told so I hung it then look and went from there.

i let my friend borrow my exhaust for smog. i have a 89 hatch, and he got a 88rex. the only problem we had was the hanger position and that mine was a b-series flange. used a little bit of muscle to pull the cat onto the downpipe.
