Default V Band

So i recently got one hell of a deal on a Garrett t3/t4 60 trim turbo, but the outlet has a "V band" outlet, I tried searching but couldnt find a good description. I need to find a downpipe for it and have no idea where to start looking, and can i use a standard (turbo) exhaust mani with it

The flange will be a stadard T3 flange for the manifold. Downpipe will be custom. Not a big deal really, we build them all the time. The downpipe is going to be specific to your manifold/turbo setup.

So the flange for the manifold has to be t3 to bolt on, and i can just take it to an exhaust shop to get a custom downpipe made?

i saw an adapter on your autoworks link to adapt v band to five bolt pattern, would that work or would i need to weld the adapter on the downpipe?

garrett t3 turbo requires t3 manifold flange.. and its easier just to cut your 5bolt flange off and weld on a vband flange. using a adapter is going to move the downpipe out more. leaving you with less room
