i think everyone who's already boosted will tell u to build first....cuz you'll soon find out that 7psi is not enough 
my vote is for build too.

not only will 7lbs not be enough if you go turbo first... youll call yourself "stupid" while youre takin all the turbo parts off to FINALLY build it. 
do it the right way if you have the money to build your motor first. it will save you labor that you dont have to do again.
