Supersprint used to have them for around $1300. Out of production, and pretty much impossible to find. If you run across a set and have the cash + real need, buy them.

Here is an older thread on the subject, covering things pretty well.

Not even close. The VR6 has two exhaust manifolds on the same side of the engine due to the shared head. One manifold is big, the other is "gimpy."
