I've got a gt2560r that I'm trying to pair with a manifold for my 2001 NB. I bought a taco taco cast T2 manifold, but it arrived today and I was unfortunately shipped a T3 flange design instead. It would cost me a ton to ship it back from Canada so I think I'll take my loss on it. I'd prefer a top mount design as I think I'm giving up on getting a cheap cast one unless there is a reliable seller able to get me one shipped to Canada.
I was looking at the CXRacing "thick wall" t25 top mount manifold. https://www.cxracing.com/MF-18-T2-MI...T?search=miata

It looks pretty solid, if it cracks I have a TIG welder to patch it up. I also like the design, the turbo is mounted closer to the front for more space for a 3" downpipe, and it matches up perfectly with my cxracing intercooler. Anyone have experience with them, or is there anything else out there that's similar and quickly available? I'd be fine with a MKturbo log style manifold but with a T25/T2/T28 flange.

I mig welded one together with carbon steel weld els in about 2 hours including cleanup. The turbo is exactly where I wanted it to be. If you have a welder and you're fine with a log then I don't see why you'd **** around with a cxracing manifold that is known to have fitment issues.

Kraken can sell you a great cast manifold. Or a matched manifold and Downpipe set. Top notch quality and good prices. Find him on facebook.

I would not mess with thin wall shiny manifolds, they crack, then you weld it, then it cracks again and the cycle never ends.

how much room would there be to weld a t2 flange to the t3 manifold? not ideal, but no worse than a pipe log.

bring it by when your in town next and I can zap it on.
