Default Exhaust for C6 Diff

I am installing a full Auto Swap and C6 Diff setup in my 04 Z06. I am currently running a Corsa Tiger Shark exhaust system. Doesn't look like it gonna fit around the C6 Cradle and Diff. Any suggestions? What have some of you done? Thanks.

My understanding is cut the exhaust and extend it, weld it back up. Takes like 3 inches I believe is what I read.

I had to cut 3" out of the midpipe and add 3" to the top of the over axle pipes... my car is still a 6 speed though, I'm not sure if the autos are any different
