Default Which high flow cat should I go with? under 200

I have a 97 civic ex with obx 4-1 header, test pipe, and Greddy evo2 exhaust. The car has this annoying buzzing sound when you go past 2.5k rpms, which sounds rediculous. I'd like to possibly get rid of the raspy/buzzing sound. Will a high flow cat like obx or magnaflow eliminate the annoying sound?

I'm looking at obx high flow cat and magnaflow right now. I'm leaning towards obx now, since it has 2.25 outlet. Which should I go with. The greddy exhaust is 2.25" piping.

obx

also would a resonated test pipe tone down the buzing sound like this one

magnaflow

would the magnaflow bolt up to the greddy exhaust? I think the magnaflow is stock diamater piping which is 2" I believe.

I've also read other posts that mentioned catco cat or random technologies, but those are a bit out price range I'm looking for, unless there are some deals out there.

The local muffler shop installed an OBD0 cat onto my 99 hatch for $80 if that helps.

It won't be under $200 but it should be a bolt on affair. Get SMSP to make you one for your application.
