Default Downpipe flange help

I've order two 5 bolt downpipe flanges now, both do NOT fit on my turbo. What's even worse is that they're both not even the same size.

I have a t3/t4 60-1 turbo. Where do you guys buy your flanges from? Right now that's the only thing holding me up from installing my turbo kit.

i was just comparing it to a flange from full-race and my turbo looks alot different. notably the elongated side by the outlet hole. any idea where to purchase one?

u think autozone or pep boys may have it?

get someone to do a CAD drawing for it. find a machine shop that has mastercam or like (or can take your drawing and program it into their center), they will be able to throw that into their machining center and pop that bitch out like a greased up baby (thats what we have done). best of luck,
