OBX and turbo Manifold, are two things you never want to get confused with!

It will work. It have two brackets from the turbo flange to the head flange wich makes it more resistant to the weight. It have another bracket from the turbo flange to the wastegate flange. Now, it still uses the same material and is as thin as the older ones. What you should do is have another bracket from the turbocharger to the engine block so it have even less stress on the manifold. By doing this it will last longer.

then you should take the runners off and reinforce them with newer, thicker ones, then weld them on with a stronger bead, and im sure it will last even longer!
