Typically from whoever makes the style of BOV that the flange fits into.

For example, Turbosmart will sell you the flanges for their BOV's, as well as adapter flanges that fit over your existing ones to fit their BOV's without changing flanges/welding.

What kind of flange for what kind of BOV were you looking for?

Call them and they can sell you a flange.

But what kind of flange do you have now, or you have none?

Did you buy your Turbosmart BOV new? They come with a weld-in flange.

I bought a Turbosmart Megasonic recently, but I have a Greddy style flange welded on my charge pipe. So I bought their Greddy-to-Turbosmart flange adapter which fits on the BOV, and then the BOV is installed my existing Greddy style flange on my charge pipe. My Turbosmart BOV came with a weld-in flange for Turbosmart BOV's in the box that I obviously ended up not using.

Would you want it? I can probably take a pic for you so can verify that it'd work.

Whom or what type of business did you use to weld the BOV flange to the up Pipe? I'm looking for a Turbosmart Megasonic and pipe w/flange right now. I don't want to wait for Jose and the guys at Forced Inductions.com to ship it. I want it yesterday. Lol.. I found out this morning that if you don't have a BOV, you can end up with a BOIP (Blow Off Intercooler Pipe). That cost me a few minutes and some dignity. I had to pull into the parking lot and lay on the ground in my office clothes to put the pipe back on.
