Huh??

The test pipe that comes with the THDP replaces the catalytic converter.It slips over the THDP next to the flex connector and then bolts to 4 bolt flat flange that the exhuast hangs on.Where the catalytic use to be.

Maybe your talking inside the engine bay on the turbo?If so,your suppossed to remove the elbow on the turbo and bolt the THDP to that.

HTH

If you go to a boneyard,you can get the flange from any late third gen fbody..and have that welded onto your exhuast
