Yep 321ss... Make or buy a double slip collector setup too...

These are expensive as hell... But 321 ss double slip joints are'nt so you could just make your own with your own colector design...
Then make a tripod bracket or rod system... to mount the turbo to the block...
The tubes can expand and contract w/o cracking anything and none of the turbos weight will be on the manifold stressing the primary to head plate welds..

Another source.
IMHO I would'nt jet hot unless its a show car or something.. Just header wrap it.. You can get alot more insulation out of the better brands of wraps than a jet hot treatment..
On something not as corrosion resistant like a cast mani you just had extrude honed I'd get it coated in and out...
