I don't know about aftermarket but a cheap alternitive would be to have yours welded. Mine is nickel welded and works just fine. Cost $25 .

Anything aftermarket will be headers...Racing Beat, and Mindtrain seem to be the popular choices.

He has a TII. They don't have headers, N/A's do I would just have it welded too D.K. It seems alot cheaper than a new one. Most of the aftermarket ones are for T04's anyway and won't work with the stock turbo. I do have a turbo and manifold with no cracks with about 30K original miles FS on thepartstrader though
