There are only two options if you are using the stock turbo: the series 4 manifold or the series 5 manifold. No aftermarket manifold will work with the stock turbo.

So now you can consider getting the s5 turbo/manifold and porting that wastegate and not have to worry about welding on a new flapper as most would advise with an s4 turbo.

R.E. Amemiya has just released a stainless steel Kouki version that's priced around $500.

The hotsides are unique. I spoke with a Turbo company in my town last week and nothing will mount up to ours other than stock units pretty much.
