Default ihi flange

i am working on a ihi rhb5 to std manifold setup, and i need to make a downpipe. i have seen beaus downpipes, but i dont think i can convince him to sell me one, so i would like to know where to get the flange for it. i saw it on a wrx site out of australia once but i cant find one now. any hints?

there was a guy selling some on ebay. try some places that specialize in WRX's for the flange. or you can hit up the junkyard, getting the flange is a bitch cuz its welded to the rest of the exhaust and you cant remove just the flange you need to hacksaw it off...

off a MX6/probe? thats what i used. Beau cut it off about mid way down (i dont think it cleared the crossmember) and welded a 2.5 inch downpipe onto that. worked out pretty well...

how much of a pain was it to weld up like that... that was my first plan, but i thought that by the time i ported it out (need it smooth on the inside)and all it would be a real pain. i plan to run around 10-12 psi if the turbo will do it.
