Its been a while since I've has a turbo coupe, I scored a 87 for a good price, but needs a little work to get her back on the street. I'm replacing the turbo and I found the water lines are heavly rusted and have a couple of pin holes.
I see the forced4 is no longer making them.....any i dont want to buy used rails that are not in any better shape on ebay.
here is my new bird

I don't know of anyone currently making replacements. I'm going to say you would have to make your own or find acceptable used ones.
You could get one of these and go into business.
