Probably cheaper/easier to take OEM manifold and chop it up to fit the turbo-flange. It would be less monies than buying brandname turbo-manifold. I don't get how some of you guys are willing to pay 1000+ $ for a regular tubular exhaust manifold....I welded up my own turbo manifold(s) a bunch of times now....for probably what ended up being 350$ in 316 stainless steel piping & argon to weld with....

eBay Motors: Used HKS GT-SS 280HP Turbo Kit Altezza SXE10 3SGE (item 300257306708 end time Sep-19-08 08:33:31 PDT)
Thats the whole kit but if i did some more searching i could probably find just the manifold. I dont know why people think you need to go custom kits for turboing the Redtop BEAMS.
Well it takes money to play the game. A well engineered piece is going to cost money. Im considering building a custom manifold out of Burns Stainless($$$) but itll be worth it. Those quick easy custom manifold jobs usually dont hold up long, the welds fall apart, and crack. Going turbo isnt something you go cheap on, bare minimum spending you should do for a complete turbo kit is 3k but thats a bare bones kit.
