1200 is a smaller budget, but it CAN be done for that. I assume you have the B16?

Mani w/o wastegate port = 200
T3 with internal wastegate = 50-150
DP and IC pipes = 200
Small OEM IC = 50
Bosch BOV = 30
clamps, lines, etc = 250
---------------------------------
780-850

use the left overs for fuel management, MBC, etc

(EDIT: This is assuming you can weld)
