Yes, you can weld your own manifold.
I made mine in a long weekend. Bought 1/2 inch steel plates to use as base against the engine and to mount the turbo.
At a local plumber i bought weldable bends and some steel tubing (believe the diameter was 1.25 inch).
Total price of the manifold was about 50 Euro (50 dollars).
