Hooking Kapex up to 2.5" Hose Connection

[black flag]

This is my current connection but I'm looking for a tighter transition to the 2.5" hose to save some space.  Anyone have a solution?

Festool's Non-Antistatic Hose Reducer -- ShopVac hose fits into the large end and small end fits onto your Kapex.
