You can probably get one from RotaryShack. Just email them and see. If not you will have to modify one from a 13B engine. All you need to do is oval out the mounting bolt holes and the exhaust ports on the manifold.

I haven't actually done it, so I don't know. But anyone who puts together their own 12A turbo uses a 13B manifold. It doesn't leak, at least to my knowledge. Talk to coldy13. He did a 12A turbo setup for something like $1000. He should be able to answer you question. Just PM him.
