Where to get a flange?
 
Hello gang new to the site and to turbochargers. I have a 1972 cb750 and a td04 13c turbocharger from a volvo that I got for the cheap. My question is where can I get a inlet flang for the hot side of the turbo so I can make my exhaust?

doubt you will find a turbo inlet flange for a bike let a lone one that old. use your stock exhaust flanges or buy a spare stock exhaust and cut it up. either way you will have to make your own flange. a plasma cutter is great for stuff like this.

I have a few sets of exhaust pipes I am going to cut up and use, I just need the flange that bolts to the turbo to weld to my exhaust that I am makeing so the turbo will bolt up. But i think your right about haveing to make one I cant seem to find one anywhere.

Post a pic of the flange.

Also another thing you could have done, so you dont have to hack the stock exhaust up, is to take it to a machine shop, and any decent one could make you a custom flange fro under 50 bucks.
