S300 compressor discharge flange

All the correction factor
Going to be needing the flange for this. I don't want to run an elbow so I can eliminate a boot in a twin setup.

Stainless sells this
http://www.stainlessdiesel.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=53&product_id=144

Which I think is ridiculously over priced. So my research tells me the v band is 2.5 inches and a quick ebay search all I can come up with is an aluminum flange with an o ring. I'd like to keep my piping steel.

So Im thinking this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-5-V-Band-Flange-Clamp-Kit-for-Universal-Turbo-Exhaust-Downpipes/141413307416?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D29979%26meid%3D38385886eb37454b95a5fe7d760c6c07%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D251658894234&rt=nc

I don't think it would be hard to chuck it up in a lathe and spin an oring groove in it. They also have a 2.5 to 3 steel v band adapter I thought about so I know I could weld it to 3 inch pipe.

Any other options out there?
 
Have you checked Race Parts Solutions, Himni Racing, Verocious Motorsports? They have a lot of v band options. Also could look at Wiggins clamps or Verocious's version of them.
 
Even frozenboost has sets with o rings. I actually ordered one last week to look at the quality, but haven't opened the box yet. When I get home I can take a look and see. I want to say the set with clamp and ring was > $30 so it could be junk, who knows.
 
I've looked at those sites and never saw a mild steel one with an o ring?
Highway can u post a link to said flange
 
Hey perfect did you put an o ring in that groove Jacob? How did that meet up to a 3 inch pipe?

Thanks again guys
 
yes they came with the oring installed. I used the aluminum male or female (can't remember which) to a steel male or female flange. if you click on each they say male or female. work well from what little I have driven the truck.
