A well made fabricated manifold will be fine. Just stop using the cheap Chinese manifolds. MK Turbo has a kit on group buy on this forum if you want a good one.

Then that also means you cannot afford to replace your blown motor that is going to happen soon. To reliably turbo a miata you will be spending $2500-3000.

Welcome to the modding your car game. Spend the money, do it right the first time. These are the expenses you are going to have.

$1000 for MS and Wideband O2 sensor.
$300 for Flow Force Injectors.
$350 for FM1 clutch
$300 for Intercooler and Piping
$100-1500 for a Turbo.
$750 - 1500 for manifold and downpipe.
$400-800 for a 3" exhaust.

I'm assuming ISO is the cheap brand sold on ebay that WILL always crack no matter what, even if unused.
