I'm working on turbocharging my 13B-RE, and the exhaust manifold was the toughest part. I ended up making my own. You may want to check on eBay and the for sale section here for a 12AT manifold. I've seen those JDM pieces on occasion.

I would also upgrade the ignition with an MSD and coils or a 2ndGenDFIS. Also a good set of wires.

Good luck
