1.6l tibby-t manifold on a 1.6l accent
I can't really find any fabricators in my area to make my turbo manifold so after searching online I found this:
The part fits 97-01 tibbys and I know some of them came as 1.6l
Would it fit on my accent o.O?

What he said^^^
You do know the Alpha engines DO NOT handle boost very well. The rings sit too high on the pistons and ...... KABOOM! If you run boost on an Alpha motor with stock internals don`t exceed 5 or 6 psi. And for only 5 or 6 psi, what`s the point?!

Then what is the point? Do it right the 1st time or go home.
Build a better engine and drop that in. Its just plain stupid to run head-on into a problem expecting it blow up in your face.
