I am trying to use the factory 5 bolt holset exhaust plate from a 12cm^2 housing, but have not been able to find the correct vband style that would mate up to a custom down pipe for a correct seal.

Searching I've come across answers using the terms "rolled" flange and "thick" style. Can anyone confirm the correct vband style?
 
I ran into this problem when I was doing my setup. I believe I have the pairing elbow and v band but I did not use it because they were cast steel and very small.

My solution was making a steel plate like the 5 bolt flange, welding the downpipe right to the plate, and attaching.
 
Yeah, I saw a lot of people getting steel plates and going 3" over the factory 2.5". Or people milling the factory flange off and starting with a match set of vbands.

Does anyone know of a vender carrying quality 5 bolt flanges?
