Anyone know of a firm that can laser cut a turbo to downpipe flange using a template that I could stick in the post?

The guy who told me he could do it for me made this abomination but didn't tell me till I went to collect it.

I'm desperate for it to be done urgently as the cars booked in for the downpipe and exhaust to be made.

There are various places that will let you upload a CAD model and plasma or laser cut it for you, such as Fractory.

I expect places that sell custom / aftermarket exhausts / kits would either talk to you about a custom flange, or refer you to somebody who does that sort of thing.

If you really can't get past the paper template stage, you could ask around to see who has a CNC laser/plasma cutter locally. They're not that rare these days.

I use Cranford engineering in Surrey, I am sure he can help as long as there are some dimensions with the template.

If you can provide some sort of fag packet sketch, I can draw it up in CAD.
