Finally got my new manifold prototype (pics inside)
The location of the turbo is the same as stock..
More news when I get it..

Re: Is there anyway to make it so the turbo sits a little further back.
Probably, but the whole point of this manifold is to keep the turbo in the stock location so the stock intake and exhaust location can be used. Putting a larger frame turbo is on it is no big deal, just involves putting in the t3 frame adapter plate on insted of the T25/T28.
I looked at Audi R4R and his manifold and it brings the turbo very far away from the manifold.

I am thinking more on the line of putting a big GT25/GT35 hybrid . The main problem is
getting a full 3" snorkel up and around where the stock intake is at now and I will be doing a custom 3" exhaust anyway that will have the cat under the car. So I need more room in front of the turbo and can lose a little room in the back.

Just an educated guess, but it would then keep the pressure the same across all cylinders.
If you have mismatched pressure, or too far out of sync the pistons/spark would not fire evenly.
This is standard on all engines except for crappy cast stock exhaust manifolds.
