Any t3 flanged manifold should work fine for you.

Why a 57 trim and not a 60? Why a 57 at all?

50 trim is smaller.....plus it would make the same amount of horsepower as a 60 anywayz only difference from a 60 trim..ill get 30-40 hp to max a 60 trim then a 50 trim...so why bother buying a 60 trim for 30-40 more horsepower...

do you expect an increase in hp with bigger turbo or manifold?

well to go big turbo...(50 trim) i do need a custom exhaust manifold to bolt right up..im making my own turbo kit...thats why i ask what other companys make custom exhaust manifolds for our car...so i can bolt the turbo right up...but to me simply modifing a stock turbo is a waste..thats my opinon though...i just rather put money in a bigger turbo setup:P and get more and better power at of it.... plus the 50 trim is a good turbo for our motor also

Maybe you should rethink your ideas. A little research goes a long way.

There are options out there and people who can help you but you have to read and comprehend what people post.

The old school turbo's are weak compared to whats availble today.
Fyi, a "57trim" has almost the same inducer dia as a Gt3076R, with the Gt being 10x superior in quality and aerodynamics.

The only point a 57trim has is price. Since it needs a custom maifold (at least $800 if it's worth a damn) there really isnt much point to using your grandpa's turbo.

enough said. "50 trim" is old school. welcome to today! gt3076r or PTE 5457rb= (my setup) are what you want. synapse has a nice manifold and dejon and BTF have nice adaptors for the facotry manifold.
