Looks very nice, well thought out, angles look good for flowing abilities.

Coozer,
Probably gonna be a bit short of time for anything for a while - decorating/work/kids/wife and the evolution of Deimos (twin turbos/FI for my R V8),
but thanks for the faith
marcjagman,
Yeah, it's also the only way I can get it to fit
Mark,
Got the flanges from Custom Chrome (iirc about £80), and Sch40 from All Stainless Ltd. Should've taken one to "someone I know" who
can cut them out
Got about 20mm clearance to chassis rails
CaLviNx,
All stainless steel (Schedule 40 butt weld pipe), TIG'd. Purging? Outside done with an angle grinder, powerfile, router and DA sander! Took
about 5 hours.

Like the look of the manifold. I've been doing Pinto turbo manifolds. Started with mildsteel ones, these can crack unless suported well. Then
changed to stainless.
I used sch 10 pipe though 40 was a bit thick and 10 was easier for me to weld.
This is my stainless one.
