Don't go with Turbo Elements or OBXr. Ive had to fix many of them that have failed.
Why don't you like the InlinePRO manifolds? Although it is a log manifold, you can get "simlar" results by running the correct turbo. Is your engine stock? Ive made 600whp on a InlinePRO & 367whp on 10psi. And Matt Kellers hatch was making over 800whp on the same manifold.
Although you'll make "more" power on a topmount VS log manifold, You're still limited to 300whp reliably on any B series. and If build, the same applies with sleeve Reliability.
Heavily modifying your engine when boosted should only be considered "IF" its needed to reach your power goal. So when you've reached to peak of your 3BAR map sensor and you still havent hit your power goal, THATS when you start modification in other areas.
Just trying to save you a lot of time money and head aches.
If the Topmount feature of turbo maintenance convince is what you want. Or even the bling, try a SPA topmount cast log manifold. It has great oil return hight, EXCELLENT waste gate placement, High quality Cast Iron and fits with power steering and with a E or B cover turbo its AC friendly.

Ive been making tubular manifolds for several years now and have been boosting hondas for even more. So im not just blowing smoke up you butt, just trying to give you honest information strait form a experienced Manifold Fabricator.
