I am thinking about ordering a ste of BD twins. Would I HAVE to order a new manifold too or will the stocker work till I can save up for a 3 piece?

Stocker should work just fine, but watch for cracks.

With the stock manifolds it seems to be a question of WHEN not IF they crack

Personally, I'd try and make it work so that you can order/install the manifold and twins at the same time... It will save you a bit of shop time in the future.

If you must, the stock manifold can be used...

The 03+ twin setup comes with the three peice manifold because the primary turbo location when using the factory manifold is in the wrong place. The 12&24V version do not come with the manifold.
