Where to get TO4E downpipe adapter?

Just got my TO4E setup and I need an adapter. I've currently got a 3" RB downpipe, and I need to go up to the 4" outlet. Is this something I could get made down at Midas (doesn't look likely) or is there a specific adapter that someone can suggest? Didn't really think too much about this part when building all this.

All depends how you want to attach the downpipe. I had all sort of headaches because no one knows how to weld a steel vband flange onto a cast turbine.
You need to find a good welder. I bought a turbine with a vband formed onto the housing. You can attach a 4 bolt flange but again, you need to have it welded to the turbine.

Thanks for the links. The turbo already has a v-band flange on it (didn't know what it was called before) so I just need to get one welded onto the down pipe. I should be able to find someone to do that.

Hmmm, the real problem is getting the 4" outlet down to the 3" downpipe. How is everyone else doing it?
