Question turbo manifold

I was wondering if anyone out there has put a top mount turbo manifold in a crx with a b-series. No one seems to have a forsure answer when this question arrises. I know someone that has one for sale and I would like to buy it but, I would like to have some peace of mind that it will fit in my car.

Any help would be nice

i was actually looking into getting one for my rex but the guy im dealing with said it will be extremely tight and you need a half size radiator and aftermarket bar crossmember, well you need one anyways but still. im just going with ramstyle or shorty.

Any of the off the shelf top mounts won't fit a crx. I know I saw one company build one for the crx but I forgot who it was.
