oh boy... what did i start here... lol
IMHO - i like how ss looks but everyone i consult agrees... weak.
this manifold should stand up to the duties it faces in the near future... im not planning on putting the stock turbo etc on this manifold so dyno will not mean anything. It will be a completely new machine when it's done.

Haven't seen these large amounts of broken manifolds you mention. If there were why would so many stainless turbo manifolds and headers be on the market?? Seen them in daily use on many cars from R33's to S-14's to EVO for years with no issues. If poorly made stainless will crack. What size steel piping did you use on that baby.

Here's a tubular cast manifold with a Garrett T3 flange from http://www.roadraceengineering.com/eclturbos.htm
