I spotted an interesting exhaust manifold on eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-MAZDASPEED-3-6-MZR-DISI-TWINSCROLL-TURBO-MANIFOLD_W0QQitemZ370146444945QQcmdZViewItemQQptZM otors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item3701464 44945&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65%3A10|39%3A1|240%3A1318). It is set up for a twin scroll turbo. The text claims it is a prototype made for Mazda by OBX.

It looks like another OBX screw up. Hope noone buys this, they will be sorely disappointed when they try to install it haha

This has been posted before. I'm not sure if it was on this forum, but on the ************ for sure. but its for the current ms3, even though youd have to change the turbo and all that good stuff.

Umm...that flange that is on there is for the twinscroll VF series turbos made by IHI for the JDM and EDM subarus. Very strange. These turbos come on the recent generations of STI's in markets other than the US.
Check it out.

I think it came from OnlineMazdaParts, almost two years ago.
