I made a (crappy looking) "adapter" which allowed me to connect the turbo to my Bonez SuperFlo cat/resonator. Not ideal. Probably your best bet is to find a TII downpipe that fits (be careful, because many of them will hit the firewall due to the turbo spacing) or fab one up (flanges can be purchased from Mazdatrix).

Yeah, I was thinking about having one fabbed, a DP is a little too much for me to do

I am using a Turbonetics turbo so I had mine custom made at a muffler shop. The guy did a good job (3" mandel bends) installed $60.00.
