So, now that I am in Southern Arizona, I don't have to worry much about passing emissions, thus I can start looking at the turbo conversion. However, where do you find the turbo manifold? I know there are many other parts needed, but one way or another, I am certain I can source them. But I can't find a source for the turbo exhaust manifold, even aftermarket. I must suck at internet searching......... Any help?

I’ve been looking too, at least for something aftermarket. If I find a good one I’ll send you my old one. Or if you want my old b series manifold and t3 turbo it just needs the downpipe mated to the midpipe and some repairs. There’s also a top mount turbo manifold I see on Amazon but that would take a custom downpipe.

Ok, we'll keep in touch. I did find a cast one on Amazon: Amazon.com: Turbo Exhaust Manifold Compatible with Ford MVP MAZDA 323 FS FP T25 Flange Top mount : Automotive

I am getting my intermediate pipe cat removed next Monday to just straight pipe it.

Well, was going to have my intermediate pipe/cat taken out and fabricated into a 2" straight pipe. Shop first told me no more than $200, but when I got final estimate before dropping it off, they said somewhere between 490 and 575. I told them forget it, I will do something else. Researching now, I think I can fab it up with exhaust flange pipe adapters and straight pipe, clamped at first, but once I get it right, I can take it to a friend that can weld it solid for me and I can bolt it back in. Unless someone here knows who sells the intermediate pipe minus the cat. Got any ideas?
