All the down pipes are manufactures spec that is not a good setup MCI used it causes back pressure on the little 6v92 buy a flange from some one like Clamps Plus weld it on and use a V clamp then it will never be a problem if you ever need a turbo that type is tough to get sometimes on the road without changing the hot housing

good luck

Brian, any chance I could see a pic of your used one? The other Brian convinced me. :-) I think he's right about what I need. Cliff also has a great suggestion.
Just need a good welder

That's exactly the piece I need! Is it about to rust through at the cast end of it or is that surface rust? Mine rusted through and fell off which is what put me  in this situation in the first place :-( if that isn't rusted nearly through then please do let me know what it would cost to ship to apopka, fl 32712 zip. Slow USPS or ups would be fine.

Brian (bevans6) it appears yours is straight flex. What size is the flex? 5 inch?

Hi scott.  The diameter of the tubing and flex on mine is 5".  I would measure up the tube you are getting from 'tother Brian, and match that.  The flex is designed with a 5" ID, to slip over a 5" OD pipe, and you get the matching band clamps with a step in them to fit over both,, and clamp them tight.

Exactly what I was hoping to hear. I'll PM the other Brian and ask him to measure the tail end of his pipe...thanks again..the board is invaluable...truly.
