Default exhaust manifold problems

I have a 95 hatch, b20b swap.

I had gotten my whole exhaust welded into one piece and it's about 2 inches too short -____- The welder I went through wants to charge me again and I think that's bulls**t, so I wanted to know if there's a way to cut my exhaust and extend it somehow, or if I'm just an idiot and need to get it re-welded....again

There's no simple way, other than welding. Either welding in more piping, or welding a couple flanges onto pipes so you can bolt it together. Either way, you're stuck welding.

You could cut your exhaust in the spot you want to extend it and get another piece of the same diameter. Have a muffler shop put a "swedge" on both ends and have it slip into your existing exhaust and use muffler clamps. Kind of crappy but it will work. Or pay to have it cut and re welded.
