Can get flanges and cat replacement pipes from racing hardware stores 
(online), or exhaust shops and aftermarket exh. makers to make you only 
the part you need. Cut and weld the piece. Make sure to make that joint 
flexible by using springs and washers from S2 flange, with longer  bolts 
to match.

Cheers,

Ado
