GSF do them, but the last one I bought (for a twin pipe), was so badly made that by the time I'd got it fittable, it would have been as quick to make it from scratch.

Your car doesn't have one because it fell to pieces, and someone removed the remains in the hope the MOT man won't notice it's missing.

Takes the strain off the manifold, and might just be failure fodder for a MOT man one day.
