Default Turbo manifold design?

What are the advantages of a top mount over a ram horn design. I am going to up grade my log manifold next summer and was wondering what would be the best one to get. My turbo is a turbonettics T-66 w/ a divided T-3 flange. If I get a top mount would I have to lose power steering? I don't have a/c anymore so that dosen't matter.

i dont know if a ram horn that uses the divided pulse tech, so a top mount would be better. as for keeping p/s i dont know i know last year with my ramhorn i had to hack the bracket.

The turbo sits on top... pretty much the only advantage that you will see.

Depends what company you go with, we design ours around the customer specs.

How much for a top mount with a divided flange. And I want to run a 44mm tial wastegate. How long of a wait is it for the manifold. Its a LS/VTEC motor w/ b16 head. I would like to have the down pipe made too.
