I have 2 spares beyond the one on the car. Both I would describe as "questionable" or "not great". Both were E-bay buys. Seriously paid good money for them plus the shipping.

If can supply them, but I'd want them back.

I have a jig for a custom header. Not for sale, sorry. Also note that due to the terrible quality control of the OEM manifolds, if you are making a jig you need to start with a manifold that fits right in the first place, or you need to build your jig to correct the offsets. The runners need to fit against the head studs without strain and the turbo needs to be in the right place.

So are you going into business selling exhaust manifolds then?

Well, I gotta see if it is gonna work first. I am back on the project now as I have the turbo off and sent out. I wouldn't mind making them for others, but they would unfortunately not be cheap given the material costs and amount of labor involved in making something like that.
