I think it's a stock manifold with a T3 flange welded on. I also think it's going to crack at the flange ;)

Can you even get a turbo on there, I would think it would hit the radiator?

Ditch it and get a better one.

its for a stock motor for now

uh, so? get rid of it now or get rid of it later. but when you get rid of it later you'll wish you had gotten rid of it now :)

if anything if i do keep it il use the lay out to build a custom one besides im in welding classes anyways so i dont think it would be to bad to fab up good idea?

if your in welding class whynot just fab one up to begin with rather than wasting your money on a "dummy"

bc i dont have the flange or know the size or anything my stock motors in my car and id still need the turbo flange to figure out the size so now that i have it i was gonna use this one while i make one or keep it as a spare i was gonna check the welds on it and see how good they are but i figure for$ 50 its worth it even for a spare for my motor since its still stock but i dont even have a turbo yet or anything else i found a 96 2g gs for 2k but i dont have the $ to buy it just for the motor

Please use punctuation, that was pretty hard on the eyes. (I almost passed out trying to read aloud it in one breath. ;) ) Seriously, though, as an alternative to consider there are log-style manifolds for around $100.00 on eghey that won't break right away. (But this isn't first-hand knowledge.) They're basically the same thing as CI's manifolds, but about $200.00 cheaper.

Google for stainless tubing manufacturers and browse around www.homemadeturbo.com for some links to said manufacturers.

You need to do a write-up on how to repair blown subwoofer voice coils for this site.

www.atpturbo.com is probably cheaper.

www.woolfaircraft.com for stainless or steel bends.
