I'd use this, personally:
kdmtuners.com

Hyundai and Kia Performance Specialists | KDM Tuners | PROSPORT Mini Cat O2 Sensor CEL FIX (90°)

Build. Show. Race. Check out our products and find out why we’re the go to for all your KDM Platform needs!
kdmtuners.com kdmtuners.com

...but check with @trdtoy, he might have one -or something similar that will work as well or better- in his stash of parts.

Vibrant has many models. Try and match it to the ones used on the aftermarket downpipes

Can get something like a mini cat or elbow that works well but these will also throw O2 sensor codes at times. Tuning the code out is the easy way.

yes, a lower one when you disconnect the B pipe that can be removed but be careful the o2 sensor is right behind it. doing this will net you a small gain and no tuning/elbows required... no cel.

I answered this already but if doing this to get more gurgles you will not likely be happy by just doing this. You will need a catback with straight through cat or resonator design if not straight piped and a tune anyway to make the gurgles or pops much better. Oem tune is piss poor in any of these aspects even with a good exhaust setup. For gurgles just a proper catback and tune is all that's needed. This is how the N cars are that still have cats.
