Help identifying this 1.6L cast manifold?

It's pretty heavy and seems nice and thick, but I can't figure out who made it... Is it just a higher quality ebay manifold or something?

Sure looks like a casting to me. The transitions are smoother and more gradual than any welded manifold I've ever seen.

Can't help on the ID, though.

That is a VERY rare HKS B6 turbo manifold. It's T2 flanged.

If you don't want it, I'll gladly take it off your hands. I'm serious. Paypal ready.

looking down in the turbo flange, appears to have welding marks where 2/3 come in
