it looks good, but I agree with just sticking with stock.
as for obx being crappy, I have a header on my se-r from them and the only reason it ever cracked in the 5 years I have had the header was because I bottomed out and it instantly cracked it. the metal has never rusted. my $.02

Doesnt look like a twinscroll manifold... and also the wg should be going to the other side IMO because you will be running your dump tube right past your intake and compressor. Are you planning on going to a t3 style turbo? We need more details about your car to suggest what to do. As for the quality, you get what you pay for. I have had a Megan racing exhaust manifold on my evo for 3 years now with NO issues what-so-ever. The key to them is just to make sure that you dont have the manifold supporting the weight of your turbo and half the exhaust lol. The majority of cracking exhaust manifolds is due to the stresses casued by this.
