You should make some with DSM flanges. Nobody out there makes a good DSM flanged manifold for the miata.

I should have a 1.6L Log with a T3 flange coming out before too long. I am not really edumucated in the DSM turbos and wouldn't really know which flanges and such to use. Thanks for the advice, keep it coming.

I'm fairly sure that most folks with a DSM flange are lower budget people... most fabricators probably shoot for the fellas running non oem (expensive) turbos, since they have the cash to pay more for the manifold. I know I would with my business.

If someone can make a ramhorn for a T3 based turbo I would buy it.

Andy,
If you are interested in having a ramhorn made, send me a pm or email to auroramotorsports@gmail.com and we can talk about personalizing a manifold for your application.
Thanks

Pure speculation, but..

How about a sort of "Greddy relocation kit", where you supply the manifold and DP to make the Greddy kit a bottom-mount (or begi-style mount). I think some of the people who've upgraded nearly every other part of their basic Greddy kit might be up for it.

I wouldn't mind, I just don't have a platform to fabricate by.
