I wouldn't use that cut out stuff. I tried it and it blew out in a couple of weeks. I wound up buying a used metal one for the mani to turbo and cleaned up the two sides on the outlet and bolted them together. It leaks a little, but I really don't care. 
Maybe you could contact XS and see if they can help you.

They should have all the turbo related ones. Get stainless steel where they are available. The deltagate gaskets only come in the perforated metal impregnated with graphite. These work fine if you keep the connection tight. If it comes loose they will blow. I'd order a few extra just in case. At least until you are sure everything will stay tight...
