Has anyone used one of these manifolds, I know it is Ebay, but it could be a good starting point.

Nope.

The Evo 8 Setup is becoming popular though, and there are nice manifolds available for them.

DId you get my email?

I dont like the wastegate position. We have enough issues with space in that area as is, that may make it worse.
