Hi Wayne, you will have issues with the standard manifolds.
You can buy headers directly from Gouky (Marc), see link below:

I have a set of these, they are very well made and will release a few kW as well.

They was a guy on this forum who had a set he was selling as he was had decided to turbo charge his 2GR, I think the username is Zimmo. Try and contact him to see if he still has the headers for sale.

Hope the build goes well, are you going to do up a writeup? I am in the process of building a supercharged 2GR as well and have a thread in the Rides section.

Good luck, regards

Hi Wayne, Looks awesome mate, keep the updates coming.
The custom build will definitely be one of its kind and installing a Merc interior, wow, well done. I am sure we will all be looking forward to the updates and the final product.
Good luck and best regards, Mo
