Say what? What kind of turbo is it? If it's a stock Turbo, there should be a plate bolted to the back of the hotside, and then the 3 studs go in and that's where the downpipe is bolted.

that uses a v-band clamp to secure the downpipe to the turbo. Thats why there is the ring with the lip there instead of bolts. Check out turbonetics or cheapturbo.com they should be able to set you up with a v-band discharge kit so you can have a downpipe custom fabed.
