If it's a ching chong meow tubular ebay manifold I'd suggest getting a 14b flange and cutting the T-3 flange off and welding on the 14b flange. Make sure you brace that bitch up too. Surley you must know someone with a welder and a grinder?

looks like someone braced it from the second pic. I don't think those two bars going from the turbo flange to the head flange come on them. I wouldn't worry too much about bracing it.

I don't know if any one else has cut a T-3 flange off and welded a 14b flange on before, but I don't see why not

buy a used pre-cat, cut it off cat, weld on flange.
you don't need to be good at welding

just weld the 14b plate to the T3 plate on the manifold, and drill out the mounting holes, Should be pretty easy.

On the other hand, that manifold looks okay to cut the flange off and weld up again. I say do that <
