My local Autozone carries mild steel transisions in the exhaust section. or you could use a reducer that are available for most Domestic car headers.

Example:

16 ga is pretty much the standard for exhaust tubing. Are you sure these are thinner?

the one's at the auto parts stores are ****, i wouldn't even call them a trasition, more of a 'step up'. 2.3->3" transistion from burns, part number RD-2500-300-6061-Short i believe.
