Default Where to get parts to make turbo manifolds?

Me and a friend are looking to start making turbo manifolds for ourselves. We don't know where to get parts from though. We figure we will start with a log mani then try tubular. So where can we get this stuff cheap.

Cut your own! If you have the tools to properly make manifolds, then you should have the tools to make a flange

I didn't ask for your advice on how to make a manifold. I simply asked for where to get head flanges. This is my first shot at making a manifold, no reason to add in unnecessary comments that have nothing to do with my questions.

um, I was completely serious. I'm sorry if making a flange is intimidating for you.

I understand that it is possible to make a flange, but I don't want to make one right now. I prefer the laser cut flange for now so that I don't have to mess with it. I appreciate your advice, but I still didn't ask if I should make it or buy it. I asked where to buy it at cheap.

Also, I can't seem for find the T's at mcmaster. What material is the cheapest to use that will hold up. Since this will be my first manifold I want to keep stuff as cheap as possible but still be able to use it.

I want to say cheapturbo.com has head flanges. I could be wrong.

They have a lot of cool stuff on there but their kits are expensive. I mean you can buy a log manifold for what they sell the kits for.
