Cheap turbo parts: Where to shop within Canada

I am in need of several turbo parts. I always have a hard time looking for sources in Canada. Can anyone recommend anyplace?

In particular, I need small stuff like T3 exhaust flanges, external wastegates, etc.
Thanks.

you won't find that stuff in Canada

the flanges I had custom made, but since you are using a common turbo you can buy yours from hella sources in the states.

there are a few online stores you can order from, just search google

not many options

There are tonnes of US sources, bought I've been RAPED with brokerage fee's every time. I've tried many different ways to scam my way past them, but it never works. Canadian retailers are really greedy and want way more $$$ for the same parts that are available in the states for cheaper. I guess I'll stay over in the states for a few days (vacation) and then buy stuff and bring it back legit... arghhh. I gotta go to Texas soon anyways.
