Get a manifold that is flanged for a T3 turbo. There isn't that many options out there for a T3 flange. Or you could run an adapter but I wouldnt go that route.

Punishment makes some great products including manifolds. Very good machine work and welds.

haha I know. It does look sic. And they claim that it is a good one. If you guys were shoping for one what would you get. Man I can't wait to get her going again! Been so long.

I just can't believe everyone is paying so much for headers. IMO, as long as it flows just as good and isn't gonna rust apart then I'm happy with it. I got a cheap ebay header and changed the flange on it to what I needed. It was SS and the flow was there, so I figured, why not?... Again though, that's just me. I'm sure not everyone will agree with that.

Some of the cheaper ones are more prone to cracking though.

Cracking, shitty collector design, cheap welds, tight bends...all good reasons NOT to cheap out on a manifold. (not "header")
I still run a 2g manifold (ported). Upgrades I would consider are an FP manifold, or anything Shearer.

+1. I have run cheap manifolds, and everyone of them ended up in the trash can. Do not go that route please.
Cost aside, that DNP manifold looks good and they are known to hold up.
