twin turbo headers...

i was wondering if anyone has come across a company that makes nice twin turbo headers. i'm really looking forwards to having a little turbo boost on the stang and purchasing a kit seems to have fallen through so i'm gonna try and build my own. i have a two into one front mount intercooler and will be using two IHI turbos at around 9psi (a little small but very fast spool up...)

i can't fabricate the headers or the down pipe though so i'd need to buy those...which company would you guys recomend i look at?

You can flip the stock headers around and use those... you'll just need to cut the flange off and weld a new ones on. Cheap but effective route

You don't need to cut the flanges off, just slot the bolt holes for alingment and flip em (to face forward and up) or swap side for side (to face forward and down). This has been done many times, and guys have run 9's. One guy I know online makes over 500 RWHP using OEM mustang shorties flipped, and two T3's .63/.48.

EDIT: I'm assuming 5.0 Windsor block...

I'm pretty sure he meant cut the ball flange off the end of the collector so you can weld on a turbo flange.
