Remember, turbo cars do not depend as much on manifold design as NA cars since they are just ramming air in. They more care about volume and having a reservoir to store that volume of air since it is now compressed and you can fit more "air" mass for a specific volume than if you were NA
TL.DR just buy a proper manifold and not waste your time. I don't think (not confirmed) the stock plenum volume is even 2 liters (the size of the engine and the minimal you want chamber volume to be)

Ehhhhhh, gotta be careful with the statements like "do not depend as much". You can still really fuck up your powerband on a turbo car with the wrong intake manifold (Greddy/Freddy/Cheap Chinabay S13 IMHO). There is still pulse tuning and powerband effects from runner length, taper, entrance, and plenum volume.
