Default K04 flange for ebay turbo

Looking for a flange for the 300$ ebay turbo, anyone have a lead on such a flange - is it the s4 turbo to exhaust piece?

I'm most confused -

well the search continues... I'm thinking the chinese turbo will work for me - I'm not going to boost it to high - just want about 225 hp with all stock internals and exhaust...

it strictly to replace the worn k03 - can has 107k on it

why spend money and time installing a ebay turbo that will die on you in no time? A real amount of boost will kill the turbo since they are crappy materials with unbalanced shafts. They spin many times faster than a engine and just imagine a engine with a crank severly out of balance. [:'(]

now only if i could find the glued ebay turbo compressor
