Default Downpipe?

I'm wondering if I can get a flange some where that will bolt to the exhaust side of a 14b turbo?
So I can weld a piece of pipe on it and have an exhaust shop make the rest of the down pipe?
Flange has to be able to have room to have a 3" piece of pipe welded on.

A few DSM Turbo / Honda Downpipes we have done over the years, all using Road Race Engineering Exhaust housing downpipe plates.

looking better.

isn't that aluminum painting ---- just gonna wear off?

I remember back when I was 19 and I wrecked my favorite car ('84 240GL) and so I bought another one in hopes of rebuilding what I once had. I took off the entire exhaust, sanded it down, then sprayed it with aluminum coloured exhaust paint. Looked very trick hanging from the car.... now it has just turned back to it's rusted state. Live and learn.
