internally and externally of the 2 bits you need join would be best and a length required if it's critical

sounds a pain (it is) but with that info i'd pretty much nail it exactly and see what's available

if it's a major change in diameter might need to know max length as you could be joining a couple together

that's getting on 30mm or more and most all in one jobs usually cover 20mm max so sounds like you might need a few

couple of these together might do it but overall length is gonna be the next barrier

ideally you want the outside of the original exhaust to the inside of the new box to save blowing on joints and will cut down on sizes needed - less the better
