Default Which exhaust manifold is longer?

I have a stock exhaust manifold on b16 in my eg hatch. The manifold seems to be to short. When I put the cat and exhaust on the hatch the piping is pulled to far forward causing the piping to touch underneath which vibrates in the car. It seems that the manifold is short about 2 to 3 inches or more? So I am asking why this is happening and what manifold should I use to remedy this issue? Just some more info. I had a dc sport header on it, I removed it and replaced it with a b16 manifold, well atleast I think it was for a b16.
Thanks,
Chris

the B16 mannifold is shorter than all the other B series engiens due to the fact that the deck height is shorter. If the Engine is a B16 then a B16 header should fit make sure you have the correct generation mannifold on it. if itsa B16 head on a B18 Block then you will run into clearance issues as the deck height is raised for the Displacment of the B18 Block.

I just reread what was written do you mean Length under the car ? Make sure the exhaust you have is for that car. Ive had issues with some exhausts doing that in my eg Hatch, Coupe and hatch exhaust differ slighhtly in length. Just because it says EG doesnt mean it will fit all EG models. I put a EG Coupe Exhaust on my hatch and it was pushed out cause it was too long. Andmake sure its not a B16 mannifold for a Delsol Which is way shorter than a hatch an coupe.
