Banzairacing makes one, I think. Other then that you must fab one yourself. Search for "home depot racing" on this forum for more info.

go to any exhaust shop and have them mandrel bend you a 3" pipe about 10" long about 40 degrees?

edit: i couldn't find a mandrel bender so i had mine crush bent, it works just as well... i used a PVC coupler from home depot, its opening is actually 3.25" although it says 3", so it fit around the back of the S4 AFM (3.2") and tightened down to 3" to fit onto the pipe. then used an autozone coupler for 3"-3" to fit the pipe onto the turbo (stock turbo is 2.5" though)
