Understeer has a kit for about $600. They show a refurbished manifold for about $275. Maybe one on Ebay?

Contact local junk yards... an m50 manifold off another car is the exact same, only a bit less shiney. I can get one locally here for about $90-$100.

What about a US M3 manifold (s50)? Would that work? Expensive?

Do you need anything else besides the manifold to do the swap? All the hoses and parts and wires hook up? There are about 4 on Ebay right now.
