You only have 3 pieces to the exhaust:
1. the manifold/cat
2. down-pipe
3. muffler
The down-pipe is just a "straight" pipe to the muffler.
EDIT: These will tell you exactly what you should have.

Everything downstream from there: http://www.hondapartscheap.com/south...t=0&quantity=0

The only thing there would be a resonator, like stated above. It performs the same action as the muffler- to muffle the exhaust noise. Go ahead and straight pipe it. My EX has the manifold, cat, straight pipe, muffler (aftermarket) and it's hella loud. It gets annoying after a couple of hours but, I don't even notice it driving around town.
