Default Exhaust Question

I have a 1990 four door Accord EX that I use to drive to and from work. It saves a lot of gas on my highly modified Camaro and I then don't have to drive it in bad weather if I don't want to.
The car hasn't given me any problems but the exhaust is rusted out due to the WI winters and we just had the second snowest winter in WI history, the last time we had more snow was in the 1800's.
I would rather not get an aftermarket catback but if I have to I'll buy one with a sliencer so I can keep the noise down.

First off if anyone know's of a great place to buy an OEM style catback please post up the link for me.

Second I found this site, can someone tell me if I buy the first two parts listed on this page will that give me everything from the catback so I'll be set?

I appreciate any and all help that is given to me.
Thank You,
Chad

Yes, you will technically have a catback if you buy those two parts. Is the muffler just rusted through or the mid-pipe as well? It would obviously be cheaper to only replace the part you need.

Please don't buy exhaust parts from NAPA/AutoZone/etc. they are a rip off.

Great so just order both those and I'll be set?

Because of the extra salt this year it finished off the exhaust so I really need to replace everything past the cat.

I agree those places are a rip off, I called them up they wanted something like $150.00 for JUST the muffler. What a joke!

Thank you again for your quick and helpful answer. I'll make my purchase tomorrow so if anyone else has any suggestions please say something.

Yes, order both those parts and try entering the coupon code "LUCKYFIVE" at checkout for a $5 discount. I knew I had an email from that site for St. Patty's...

You'll also need a gasket for the cat to mid-pipe connection (it's triangular) and a gasket for the mid-pipe to tail-pipe connection (it's a lead? ring).

Thank you for helping me save a couple dollars too. The gaskets don't bother me because I can pick those up from any local muffler shop no problem.

Yeah I figured you'd get them at a shop. No problem saving you some money, at least someone is using my coupon. It sure isn't me!
