I have everything I need to start my turbo build except a manifold, I was just wondering what you guys suggest. It has to have a wastegate flange and I am trying to avoid the stock manifold adapters. I'd prefer something resonably priced but it's not really important, thanks folks! Your input is appreciated! It's a 325i btw I plan to start a turbo build thread soon, so feel free to ask questions.

REV shift manifolds are unicorn now unfortunately ):
The best off the shelf manifold right now is probably CX racings.
It's tubular.
t4/t3 friendly.
Has a wastegate flange.
Clears oil filter/AC.
304 stainless.
Cons:
Not equal length
Gasket is junk
304 steel is light and can crack/leak if manifold was put together poopy
All those cons, especially the 3rd one, reflect the price.
With that said, there are a few of us using it with great success.

The one you just posted is TOTAL crap.
Fits like shit. 3 guys who are using it on this forum all said they had to cut/dremel to make it fit and it has no WG provisional.
Made of the same quality as the "new" one that fits 100% on the account of myself, kamotors, orcgrinder, cronopulos, and more
The only thing it's got going for it is possible equal length and 3-1 collectors.

Separate the banks and it fits nice. You can't weld? then get what
suits you. ;)
What did the forums guys dremal to make fit?
The crx was made to keep stock oil cooler it looks like.
When I was on the prowl for a manifold I just didn't want to make the mistake to buy something that needed slotting/modifying/welding/extras, so I researched endlessly with revshift being the scapegoat till they announced they stopped production, then settled with CXr after personally seeing the fit quality.
Haha so it felt personal since I didn't want someone else making a mistake/regret/spend.
And I worded that wrong I think. Holes had to be slotted/enlarged to match the head.
