Technically, those two should bolt together. (however, I wouldn't be surpised if they don't quite work out). If you want a cat, you'll have to cut the downpipe and probably the midpipe to fit it in between the two.

Personally I wouldn't use a header that doesn't have a single mounting flange just because they usually dont match up and you have to heat and pry on them into place. If the mid pipe dont match the downpipe you could always chop an inch or 2 and have a bolt on flange welded on.
But yeah... that should work

Thats the exhaust I have on my Orange car, minus the tip.

And I also have that downpipe at home. Have no use for it now.

would not having a cat throw a engine code?
