Buy the Tial Exhaust housing and throw a tial flange on whatever manifold you buy.

what is the reason for you going topmount?
that just seems like a small turbo for a topmount setup

do you already have the turbo?
If not Im sure you can get all this stuff done before you get it

you could always keep the internal wastegate and just get a 5 bolt flange and have a DP made custom, chances are your gonna need a custom one any way

^^ What he said. Keep the internal gate. Buy the t28 outlet flange and get a good fabricator to create your turbo downpipe. While I don't really see any major benefit on making it a top mount other than showing off the turbo. It will be nice to be a little different than everybody else. GL!
