Default Race Cats, Test Pipes, and Regular Pipe.

I am driving a '97 Civic EX with a D16 and a GReddy TD04H-15G Kit. I want totally replace my exhaust with total 3" pipe from the turbine all the way back. My car is still OBD II, and I was wondering which would be better to run in place of my old catalytic converter (either a test pipe, race cat, or if I could just run regular pipe)? I would like some help on the differences between the race cat and test pipes, and if it is possible to run just regular pipe with an O2 bung.

Id get a cheap cat and gut it. Cheaper than a high flow and it would pass a visual inspection if someone got nosey under your car.
