Default 3" flanges mating to 2.5" flanges - wahay LOL

Im on the lookout for a decent replacement for my blitz Nur spec R,currently looking at an Apexi full systembut its a 3" flange yet the seller says it fitted to his 2.5" downpipe fine, how so ????

i cant see the logic, a 3" flange mating to a smaller one and fitting

not the 1st time ive heard this either (exhaust talk,nothing else )

it would fit aslong as the bolt hole dimensions are the same but there will be a step in the actual pipe, if that makes sense.
