I'm sure the guys at Turblown could do that;( www.turblown.net) Keep in mind you're going to have to modify your dp and cooling lines, not to mention your ic and tid if it doesn't sit EXACTLY where the stock unit does. There is a thread floating around where they modified a stock unit for a customer to his specs, sure it costs a lot less than a new quality manifold...

why wouldnt you want cast? Yeah its heavy but think about how long the stock t2 have been around. After all the years they have handled abuse and most of them after about 20 years only have small heat cracks. I have a BNR ungrade on mine. I like the simplicity of it. But to tell you the truth the speed and controlability for me isnt where I would like to see it.
There are a few mass produced options you can go with and most of them will be stainless steel. This would be fine for NA cars as their EGT's are alot lower. A car with a SS turbo manifold will warp and crack sooner through the heat and weight of the turbo.

I would suggest if your serious about making some good boost to get maybe the HKS cast one . They about the same amount as the other custom manifolds, and will hold up better longer and just about flow the same. This is the direction that I am going.
Although I'm a little different then most of the people here on the boards. Im not looking for an 500 hp car. Im looking for a quick spooling 300-375 hp car using about 10-15 psi of boost.

good luck on what every road you go .
