Default where to buy 60mm s/s piping?

Well, I had a fitment problem with my apex'i ws2, so i took it to a local muffler shop. They decided to cut my nice new midpipe right before the resonator, and sleeve it with some 2.5" pipe with exhaust clamps to extend it an extra 2" to the cat. Needless to say, it didn't work very well, and it keeps leaking and getting loose.

I called a shop my friend recommended, and this guy can weld me in a new piece with no clamps... but he doesn't have any 60mm piping.... just 2.25 and 2.5.

Does anyone know a good resource to buy a short length of stainless steel 60mm piping so I can give it to the guy to weld in? The only stuff i'm turning up is in the above sizes, and I'd like to have it the same size, if possible. Also, would it cause any problems if I were just to tell him to put in a piece of 2.5" pipe, even though its slightly larger than the original 60mm piping?

thanks guys

IMO if you're not building a true race car, I don't think you'll notice much of a difference in the sizing.

thanks for the response... yeah, i figured it wouldn't do too much difference if the pipe was as close as possible in size. I think that i should go with 2.5" so its not restrictive.... anyone else think this is the best way to go about it?

Thanks, but I already checked them out... they only have 2.25 and 2.5. The shop that is doing it already has access to both sizes, so no need to order from Kteller.
