I'm actually looking for the same thing. From what I've found, we pretty much have to get one custom made or customized. I know Bob from QED was customizing a Ross Machine Racing Manifold for an A4.

Update- I e-mailed Bob @ QED. He's looking into doing them in bulk or possibly a group buy.

Are you talking about exhaust manifold or intake manifold?

I'd go for a port and polish of the exhaust manifold first.
