No offense, but you're in a welding and fab forum. Most of us make everything but the tubing and flanges we use. Some here even make the flanges.
Making a custom dump tube is probably the most simple thing any of us would do on a turbo setup.
If you have a local shop that can do it, go for it. I'm sure they can make something that will work out great for your setup.

Exactly what I was thinking.
