well it needs to be at least 1/2 inch thick steel. What i did was trace the shape of the flange on the turbo and trace the flange on the manifold using paper or cardboard. Then i cut out the tracings. I used cardboard and placed it on top of the flange then with a screwdriver i rubbed it along the edges of the flange and the outline appears on the cardboard, also do this with the bolt holes and the hole for the turbine inlet. Repeat with the manifold flange. Then cut the cardboard out and take it to a machine shop where they can make the adapter for you out of metal using your cardboard templates.
