Default EF Sedan Exhaust

i have a 90 ef sedan, as of right now it has stock exhaust from the header all the way back to the muffler. i've had an exhaust leak for a while now and im looking to replacing the entire system including header.

i know Thermal makes a system for the hatch, and i also know you can legthen it but i dont know where the best spot would be to lengthen?

also i want something with a deeper tone and not a fartcan, but also looking stock.

someone please give me some good advice when it comes to headers and exhaust, also looking to get a high flow cat, not sure of what overall diameter to run. its a stock d16a6 so i dont want overkill.

well for one thing its called a header, not headers. but really, custom exuast is the way to go, i had a stock exuast on my first ef sedan and there was no tone really and the pipe at the end was like a wendys straw, but now i have a custom welded 2" exuast into a magnaflow muffler, so theres no "fartcan" on there. it looks stock and sounds really good, a nice deep tone.

yea thats what im looking for, i dont want too big of a diameter right now. but then again, i want to turbo this engine so i might want to get a 2 1/2 or so exhaust just so i can be ready for boost.

and dude it was a typo!!! i guess you didnt see where i typed "header" two seperate times before i put "headers".
