dumping data and compressing

I have a utility provided by our vendor to dump data from their system. It is

expsysdb -s prod proddata.dmp

"-s" and "prod" are parameters and "proddata.dmp" is the file name that the data is dumped to (this can be any name). Our current system (AIX 4.3) has a file size limit set to 1 gig and as you can imagine I am running up againts this limit. Is there a way that I can have the output compressed at the same time that it is being dumped to a file? The reason I need to do this is we have set up a new system and I need to transfer the data to this system. I have used named pipes when transfering the data between two applications on the same machine, but not sure how to work this when it needs to be transferred to another machine. For example I used this to load the data under one session:
impexp -f test named.pipe

Then loged in another session (same user id) and started to dump the data like this:
expsysdb -s prod named.pipe

If you can give me some ideas that would be great or even point me to some examples. Thank you.
