Does anybody know where I can get the triangular flange used to connect the downpipe to the stock exhaust system? I've already tried summit racing and jc whitney with no luck.

Thanks for the information. However I checked that website and all they have is a generic 2.5 and 3 inch 3 bolt flange. I ordered both of those from JC whitney and found out they don't fit. The flange I need is the one that comes with an sr downpipe and sr 02 pipe. I'm going to attach a picture of a gasket with the same dimensions as the flange I'm looking for. Thanks.

tried all three. Everbody has to have a downpipe right? I wonder how everyone's connecting their turbo to the stock exhaust? This flange is also the same on that's on the stock exhaust header.

Why can't you use this flange from atpturbo?

Because I foolishly was attempting to place the flange onto the old stock downpipe (from the header to exhaust system) and the reason it wasn't fitting is because the bolts are too large not because they didn't line up correctly. So I will be able to use the generic three bolt flange after all. It all made sense after I laid the gasket onto the flange like so. So thanks for everybody that give info.
