I hear alot of bad things about those mani's and how they crack, but they sure look nice...If nothing else get some flanges and some weld el's, and have a reputable welder make you a replica...

here are the cheap ones that crack. they are made like NA headers, and the merge cant handle the heat and weight of the turbo.

well i dont want to be full of myself and say 300whp, so i'm going to guess about 240whp at 6psi with a dyno tune. comp ratio is at 10.2:1.

Been Running that one on my H22A with a Holset H1C for 2 years now and no cracking issue's even running 19psi and 300+ if HP.
It will be fine if you weld the DP to the motor before the flex tube.
