resurface turbo flange?
 
my exhaust inlet on my turbo is dented up from me beating on it to clock it, can these be resurfaced? probly a dumb question but i've never heard of it.

If its really that bad a machine shop can do it, but it'll prolly cost you 50-60 bucks

Start chopsaw, put turbo flange against side of blade. Repeat until flat again.
