Default Exhaust question/Need advice

Hey, I have a 95 civic 2-door EG with a d16z6 motor. I just bought Edelbrock Pro-Flo 1 piece headers, and am about to buy a Skunk2 Mega Power R exhaust system. My current exhaust is all stock components, but I do not have a catalytic converter in the system. It also does not fit properly underneath the car; the header flange and exhaust pipe flange bolt holes do not line up, it does not line up properly with stock hanging points, and it does not reach out to the back of the car.

Q1. For the after-market parts to not have the same problems, do I need to buy a catalytic converter or test-pipe to install between the headers and exhaust pipe??

Also, if I do then I will be buying the Blox 2.5'' test-pipe to put in between. If I dont the header also ends with a 2.5'' diameter pipe at the flange. The Skunk2 exhaust system is a 70mm or 2.75'' diameter pipe at the fange which will connect to the header or test pipe.

Q2. Will the Skunk2 exhaust pipe which is 2.75'' at the flange fit and bolt up with the Edelbrock or Blox 2.5'' diameter pipe at the flange? Or should I buy the Skunk2 Mega Power Exhaust system that is 60mm or 2.35" at the flange?

Please help, kinda new to this and am stuck. Any answers are appreciated. Thanks, Joe
