What to do, to make it fit
Just got my new billet precision turbo from the US
But it doesn't look like it'll fit my RCM rotated downpipe
Here is a pic
The gasket lines up fine with the downpipe just to let you know
Any help appreciated

Could be wrong but do they not need the flanges to be the same size for them to work.

You'll be restricting the amount of power you can flow through a 2.5 inch downpipe which is after all the reason behind going rotated in the first place.
