You would have to get something like that custom made, or make it yourself.

i have a manifold to suit a garrett t25 (i believe) turbo which mounts it over the clutch cover. I just bought it from brickworx... the only problem i think i am going to have is it was made for a clubby or moke front end, not a round nose, so clearence might be a problem.... I have it setup on another engine now, so if your interested i can send you some pics....

I have one more left that puts the turbo behind the head.
up high, no firewall mods needed. tight squeeze though.
i had it made for mine and then went factory unit.
cost me a fair bit though

interesting, would it suit the pulsar turbo though? and how would the carb sit then?
How much you looking for this manifold.... I saw a manifold on this sight sometime ago and saved the pic...

I was thinking that I could use a 3-1 set of extractors and loop a new section round to mount the turbo further forward around the engine then have a new dump pipe constructed....

the manifolds that came with the turbo are going to foul on the standard engine steadies....
