WTF are you talking about? The wastegate is internal to the turbos!

It sounds like you are talking about a v-band connection, that is sometimes used with aftermarket turbo setups. You still aren't making any sense!

Stock, there is no flex in the exhaust. With a single turbo setup, many put a flex section in for the wastegate dump tube that reconnects to the downpipe. The two pipes see different heat levels and expand at different rates/times, so having a flex section in the wastegate tube is a good idea to keep from cracking welds.
