Where to buy flange for Apexi Twin Chamber BOV?

Hey guys, I'm trying to get a FMIC install finished up, and I have an Apexi Twin Chamber BOV, but I need to know where to buy a flange to get this thing welded to the 2.5" piping that I'm using. You guys know where I can get this?

I had mine done at a machinist shop. Take it in and have them trace it.
I have pics somewhere of it. I had them make a little L shape with the flange on it. Had them weld it oo. Very cheap.

This is true. I've been looking for the same thing for quite some time now. Why is there no love for Apexi?

aha i just found what i was looking for for a good month now. a company called arospeed (arospeed.com) makes a silicone blow-off valve adaptor tha allows the mounting of a blow-off valve to intercoolers without welding and its only 39.95.. its just a coupler basically with a flange for a bov.

A jig saw, some 3/8" steel/aluminum (depends on application), a 1" hole saw, drill, and a 5MM drill bit and M6 tap. About half an hour (aluminum) to an hour (steel) to make one.
