(Quoted from the site)
"High Mount Turbo Manifold for all Mazda Rx-8s, including 2009 Models. These units are hand made in house, and can be customized for your particular application. These can be configured for any turbo or waste gate setup."

Elliot at Turblown is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I would say give him a call to see what he can do for ya.

Do you want top mount or same mount as greddy. The turbo will determine that answer also... need more info.

Yep, really $1400. That particular mani is made out of 321 stainless. so its going to cost more because of the material.

Turblown is also working on a low mount manifold. I do not know of an ETA nor would say anything if i did.

Turblown's manifold is a piece of art. They're working on some really cool stuff right now.
