exhaust manifold designs, getting mine redone Options

[easternpiro1]

hey all, been researching good designs for an exhaust manifold. if some of you dont know, there have been issues with my exhaust manifold from day one and essentially i wasnt happy with its design and quality, (is currently leaking from the flange near the turbo, and wastegate off one runner)so like lagos says: do half assed once do it right the 2nd time.

i will stop there or else i will start a rant. but anyway, anybody got some decent design pics? i want a tubular equal length header , of course with w/g coming from where all 4 runners converge. I got a few ideas from tweak and Pitcelica and a few others.

here's some that i like:

<<(thanks pit)








here is a pic of how its currently set up,

what material would you suggest? (gauge?) i was told several different things, im narrowing it down. and also, im not very confident in this guy's welding, since they screwed up the first time by sending it off to someone, theyre doing it in house, and i know they half ass alot, so i will be viewing pictures of his work soon.
