Hey all,
So I just bought a Garrett GT4294, everything is going well except for the exhaust side. I'm trying to figure out where to get a v-band flange for the turbine outlet. It seems to be a 3.5", however the 3.5" I purchased doesn't match up at all. The inside diameter is very close, but the thickness of the ring is way off.

I was wondering, is there some sort of special flange/clamp I need to buy or what?

Here's the specs:

Thanks,
Mike

Atp turbo will have your vband. If they don't, go to a local small machine shop and have one turned down.

Thanks.

I just figured someone must sell it, these are fairly popular turbos are they not? Why would Garrett use a non-standard flange and make everyone fabricate one to fit? Surely someone must sell one?

I love you.

I was on ATP for a while trying to figure it out, and now I see how simple it was.

Thanks,
Mike
