I'm not sure about turbo fitment as you mentioned but I would be wee bit concerned about the flange being such an obstruction on the inside of the outer runners. It seems as though it would impede flow unless the flange is radiused which would not be visible in the pic.
Otherwise I'm jealous of your welds :)

Yeah what about people waiting 6+ months for manifolds, now thats some bullshit. 2 months is what should be expected in all serisousness.

A log take about 2 hours tops. Now granted mine aren't as pretty as James' but I also charge a lot less. 2 months huh? Beautiful manifold though. I actually haven't made a log in so long I can't remember. Only Ram horns and Mini rams.

When you make the turbo inlet flange, do you notch it for the side tubes to come in? I was just taking a close look at your manifold and it seems like if that flange isnt notched your flow you dramatically decrease. That is where most of the hot gasses are and they would running into the side of your flange.
