New Exhaust Manifold?

I am in the market for a new exhaust manifold. My stock manifold is still good but with my light modifications what would I gain by adding a new exhaust manifold. Would it free up a few more hp? I have been looking at the BD manifold. Any suggestions or comments on this manifold?

Wouldn't it help reduce my exhaust temps and get my turbo to spool up quicker

sounds like your going to buy one no matter what anybody recommends so you might as well order it before the price goes up.

Lightly clean passages with grinders as possible and make sure is reasonablly aligned with passages in head. As good as it gets is stock.
