I was browsing through ebay and I came across this stainless manifold (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-stainless-steel-Mazda-GTX-GTR-turbo-manifold_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33742QQihZ019Q QitemZ290239843637QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW). Just looking for some opinions if this would be a good idea or not. It has a T3 flange on it though. t3/t4 turbos are sort of cheap. But I don't know what the performance increase would be like... opinions?

It would be better, and if its as nice and sturdy as they say it is in the description (Puke!) it would be a perfect fit, but heres two problems. Its hard to trust anything from china any more, and from the looks of it, that isnt a mount for a B6T. ITs for a BPT, so it wont do you any good.

I am almost positive this is for BPT.

That^ would fit the head better, but It will not fit between the head and the radiator. Theres not enough room for the manifold and turbo at that angle. That is specific more for the RWD Miata, which the engine is mounted 45* Different.

Is there any exhaust manifold besides stock that will work on a GTX?
