Default New Exhaust....cat problem

Well, I ordered an Apexi WS for my 95 Civic DX Sedan (with D16Z) and went to put it on tonight. Got the old one off (had to cut it cause some bolts were completely rusted on) and went to put on the new one. When I went to put it on, I came across a problem. The triangle-looking end of the cat didn't match up with the exhaust. On the cat, it looks like a pyramid and on the exhaust, it looks like an upside-down pyramid. So, it won't bolt on. Now, I can only think of doing one thing....flipping the cat upside down. Is this normal to have to do this and is this my only option? Also, what effect will this have on the cat's effectivity? Thanks

will it fit if you flip the exhaust pipe the other way?

no, the hangers would be on the bottom....and the dogleg in the B-pipe will be facing toward the driver side, instead of the passenger side.
