If you want a well designed & built ss tubular, look at turblown.com

Im sure you can find other ones for cheaper that are still good quality from a used greddy kit or other places, but they will be cast, log types.

Depends on what you want and what your willing to spend.

He can't use this one if he wants to keep the MOP, You'll have to tell them what you want I'm sure they can make what you want.

We are working on a manifold that will allow the OMP( will require one of our inconel heat shields for the OMP however). When we first started making the units we get a lot of inquiries from guys with other top mounts that were burning the omp wiring up, so we figured it would be best to just move it. Almost every rx-7 we work on uses premix, not sure why rx-8 guys hate it...

We moved it behind the windshield wiper bottle on one car, you could also have us make a inconel heat shield for it, or whichever piece is near it( if there is space)

I've had a hell of a time with my OMP and turbo set up. I'd love to see a proper inconel shielding for it. I made one that I had to tie to the OMP because the curves made it impossible for me and the SS OMP lines also made it hard for me to position correctly with all that shielding I throw down there. So if you make one post it, us top mounts need one although my idea seems to be working.

Can anyone of you guys take a close up photo of your OMP in relationship to your turbo manifold/downpipe? I want to get an idea of how much clearance there is for the heatshield? Laying out some prototypes....
