thats a sick manifold Yea, you definately have to get one fabbed up. I would try and use whatever you have now and modify it to fit

The Only reason I would go top mount is the ease of taking it off and swapping another turbo on. Once I get my GT3567R in all I have to do is pull off the old turbo and put the new one on. Easy peezy lemon squeezy but yeah 2871R is going to be a pain in the but to fab up but if you can weld aluminun and stainless you should be ok it will take just a few hours.
