Default Turbo Exhaust Sizing

Currently my exhaust is only 60mm because the setup was designed for N/A and nitrous. I am now moving to a turbo setup and looking for 300-350whp and maybe room to grow. Cody at Lovefab told me that to retain A/C he could make a downpipe that flairs from 2.5" to 3". I explained that my exhaust was only 60mm and he said I would be fine with 2.5" all the way at those kind of power levels. It sounds a little too small to me. My problem is that no exhaust shop around will weld a 3" in place for me because the car doesn't have a cat. What are my options?

Default problem

Then now my problem is how am I going to get the 3" piping on there? No exhaust shop will do it since it has no cat.

Default exhaust

I'm getting the manifold done by Lovefab. He can do a 2.5" into 3" flair and maintain A/C. I am located in New Tampa area off of Bruce B Downs. This would not be done until May/June though. I am still N/A and won't have the turbo setup completely ready until then.
