i know. your picture shows you are measuring the outside diameter of the flange. you need to measure the inside diameter of the flange. the size flange you need to purchase will be the size of pipe that fits into the flange. ex. my 2.5 v band flange fits a 2.5 pipe but the outside diameter of the flange is ~ 3 inches.

it looks like the inside diameter is 3.5 inches so you will need a 3.5 inch v-band clamp. thats a larger turbo. what are you going to put it on?

Due to the 11 digit part numbers, I would assume it is a KKK turbo. Your best bet to identify it is calling around some turbo rebuilders and giving them the numbers to see if they can cross-reference them to give you more info. You don't want to slap that thing on without knowing what it is. They would also be able to tell you which clamp to get, if you can't figure it out.
