I am not sure, if I want to get a kit or build my own but does this sound right for the pricing and all the things i need for now.
turbo- 575
intercooler- 550
wastegate- 250
manifold- 400
downpipe- 350
oil lines/ vacum lines- 200
misc. bolts and crap-100
vortech fmu-150
misc. piping- 150
bov- 200
injectors- 300
fuel pump- 150

what else do i need besides gtting it installed and tuned? does the price seem sort of right or is it going to be more.?

intercooler- 550

Way to Much, I got a real nice one on Ebay for 300 shipped, it's fucken huge and it's so nice
Just Check Ebay for Intercoolers, There are a few guys who make custom ones, and they are so nice and priced real cheap.

Also fuel pump- 150
http://www.groupbuyceneter.com u can get them 100 to 110 shipped there

save u a few bucks

Also u don't want to go with the vortech fmu-150 what a fucken waste, just get a SAFC or a VAFC and run the hack

Well your prices are gonna vary depending on the quality of your products. Also i noticed soem of your prices are a little high(bov, Wastegate, Downpipe,fmu), but hey its always good to overestimate. shop around youll find good deals. You'll see that these days most people are piecing together kits as opposed to buying a complete kit.

Mu first kit was a revhard 2c, great starter kit, but now on my second try im going custom/simple setup. Good luck

yeah for the replies and keep them coming..i know the prices are a little high but its better to over estimate then to under estimate.

manifold- 400
downpipe- 350

you could consider the ebay buy from SSAutoChrome: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...43240

just be sure to support the manifold because ppl say that it puts too much weight on itself supporting a turbo and the downpipe
also the bid starts at 225, and i've only seen it go as high as 330
find a welder and get him too look at it, perhaps if its gonna crack somewhere it can be supported very well before you even put it on

me personally I like that manifold, all I have seen is pics and heard ppls input on it tho, either way dont get a kit... thats my opinion

Still need coolant lines for turbo, shouldn't cost more than $50.

blkvtec

Well here's my insanely priced set up:

T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo, Tial BOV & Wastegate, Spearco (insanely huge) intercooler, custom piping, Hondata S100, RC Engineering injectors, AVCR, ACT Clutch, resurfaced flywheel....blah blah blah. I won't even say how much it came too.

This is what I have so far:

T3/T04E
DropShop mani.
TiAL w/g
GReddy bov
Starion FMIC
APEXi boost guage
Oil feed/return setup
Partial i/c piping and charge pipe
DP flange

So far I have spent $1421.00
*Some of my fittings for my oil feed/return setup and the charge pipe w/bov flange were obtained through trading.

I still need:

Flex section
Fabrication for DP, dumptube, and i/c end tanks
Fuel management
(3) 90-degree bends
Couplings/clamps

So I figure I will be rockin my custom kit at less than $2k

I pieced mine together with the Manifold, Turbo, Wastegate, and BOV being brand new, all other components were used with the exception of piping and downpipe, and I was able to do it for just under two grand..
