Default need opinions on this turbo setup before i start buying stuff

Im thinking about just doing a custom turbo setup as opossed to the greddy kit i was going to purchase. I just need opinions on the setup, and such. Was looking at the obx-r stainless steal equal length exhaust manifold has external wastegate flange prewelded. Have you heard anything on these manifolds? are they durable? http://thepartstrader.com/Sing...=1004 Plan on getting a tial 35mm wastegate, garret t3 turbo .48 a/r .42 exh, downpipe im not sure what to do, can i just get a rev hard or drag and bolt it up? an hks ssq bov, jc whiteney charge piping, fmic not sure yet its going on a 99 civic coupe ive been looking at a few, what you everyone recommend that doesn't require cutting? Greddy profec b boost controler with boost gauge, v-afc hack w/ dsm 450s and warlbro 255 pump. This kit is going on a d16y8 with stock internals, what do u think? Please opinions and ideas are welcome please help out if you can.

Where is the best place to purchase these manifolds from? Isn't someone on the forum producing stainless manifolds, i thought that boostedy8 had one.

spend the extra cash for the inlinepro, you can use revhard downpipe. Think about investing in Hondata instead of hack. Don't buy obx, I've seen too many break apart, not crack but break completely apart.
