Default where you at?
if in canada, flanges are found at lordco, mopac etc. as for pipes, the atpturbo.com seems to be really good price - i bought mine from jcwhitney.com

Default jegs lists mild steel while jcwhitney has aluminized steel..
mild steel will definately rush right? and aluminized means its got a coating to prevent rusting?

Default I got mine from atpturbo.com - decent stuff pretty cheap

I would get the hardware from ATP, the bends from JCWhitney, and use Burns as a last resort, assuming you are trying to keep costs down.

Default If you're looking for mandrel bends, get the ones from JCW...
MUCH better than the Jegs stuff (which I think are Hooker products)

The Hooker bends I bought rusted pretty quick (on another car). The JCW ones are still looking good on my DP.

Default so will that 3-bolt flange you have in the pic fit my K03?
i dont think i'm supposed to use the stock flange, am i?

Here's a pic of the stock DP, i have fwd so the bottom DP is the one not the top one..

I'm thinking i'll need two 45's and a u-bend, and flex joint?
