What Exhaust Header For an '88 Convertible

The exhaust on my 1988 convertible has rotted through right before the last catalytic converter (the one with the back-pressure pipe). I have been searching online for a downpipe or header that would replace the exhaust up to this point, but I cant seem to find one that fits the convertible because apparently the transmission is in the way. Anyone know what header I could get to replace the first two cats and the stock header. (I'm really cheap by the way, college life).

I'm not endorsing RX7.COM, but you might want to checkout their website (https://www.rx7.com/store/rx7/fcexhaust.html) for alternative exhaust options.

Should you decide go with the RB downpipe, but still require emissions than an option maybe rx7.com cat that replaces the RB presilencer (Bönez Catalytic Converter only - for use with Racing Beat Street Header). This is what I recently installed on my S5 coupe.

Alternatively, rx7.com has a one piece NA Bönez Street Exhaust System that will replace all your existing cats. This would probably be your least expensive option.
