Oh.....

Get the exhaust guy to flare-end the existing exhaust pipes. Then get them to Butt-Weld it, instead of just slip fit + weld.

You only need to do the rear section. So:
- Existing pipe
- Slip fit into X pipe
- Flare Rear section of existing pipe.
- Butt-Weld Xpipe to Rear section.

It really shouldn't matter, but if you want the cheapest smooth transition, with the least amount of work, this would be the way.

Did you check the X-Pipe?
It should've been designed as a slip fit, so you're getting worried over nothing.
Check the inside to see if it flares down in size.
