i wanna do two things
a)make some money
and b) help u guys out!!
reading through these threads iv noticed the extreme lack of turbo manifold available for m20, m30 etc. also stuff like piping and wastegate/BOV bosses etc
would there be a market for this stuff in this country? im talking good work, good prices and limited (one off's also) runs.
let me know ur thoughts guys, also what else is missing from the scene if you see what i mean - the kinda thing u think - "i wish someone made/sold that!!"

Yeah, open X, not sure where or what you would need to do the job but 20 quid to weld it up seems good
Any one got any good places for SS tubing ?
Where are you based ?

2 inch tube, this will give you a rough idea of the overall size, what might make it fun is the two exhaust pipes are not completely parallel, it has got to fit inbetween the flange and the exhaust bracket.
I hope this enough to get an idea of what i want, if the price is right i will get you some better measurments
