Does anyone make a A/C compatible B series top mount turbo manifold? Seems like it's getting hotter and hotter every year and not having A/C would suck for a DD car.

Because of the way the "header pipes" go downward from the head then back up to the flange for appropriate "top mount" placement of the turbo, you aren't going to find this. It could be done, assuming you didn't run any type of condenser (or radiator depending).
Your choices are pretty much limited to an "equal length" type of manifold or Drag / Inline Pro / LoveFab Mini-Me (AC), etc.
Jeff Evans is a tuning god, did you read the post he(boosted hybrid) made in the thread?
Jeff is a damn good tuner and person (for those that have met him would agree Im sure), though, the key word is "tuning". If you're boosting a B20 short block (ie. bottom end) then you either have it sleeved or aren't expecting a great deal of boost, advanced timing or detonation/knock as he stated.
