the flange for the downpipe will be a 5 bolt flange.

That's weird how it's designed... most of the time the wastegate flapper is part of the flange that you weld the downpipe to.

What turbo is it? The 5 bolt flange Aftermath posted will work on that turbo, you just won't use the one hole.

Nah. .lots of internal wastegate flaps are on the turbo itself. The flange you posted I have rarely seen around.

Nope, it definitely looks like it has some unique bolt pattern and not the typical T3 turbine flange.

What car did this come off of? Or any idea of what model Garrett this is?

Its the same. It just doesn't have that other hole. Look at it again.

I just worked on one the other week, making a 5 bolt flange downpipe.

Even splinter backs me up.

ok so apparently imma dumbass. in the box that my turbo came in there was a bag with the wastegate actuator and a bunch of bolts, so after writing an pissed off message to the dude i bought it from, i found this in the bag...

would just any exhaust shop be able to do the welding for it?
