Default Rate my Set up

Hey guys, i know you'll say come talk when you have it done but im wondering what you guys think of the turbo set up. Im just looking for your guys input on the quality of the set up and and suggestions. This turbo is going on a d16z6. Here is the kit:

Turbo: Garrett t3 Turbo, .60 trim and .48 a/r housing. http://westcoast-turbo.com/turboa.html First turbo on the page.

Intercooler: "Stage 1" Intercooler 20"x6"x2.5" http://westcoast-turbo.com/intercoolers.html First Intercooler on the page.

Wastegate: 38mm Tial Wastegate. http://westcoast-turbo.com/wastegates.html First on the page.

Manifold: Not 100% sure looking for input. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem my buddy has that one and it works pretty well i guess but i dont wanna buy off e-mail anybody have any input?

Blow Off Valve: Turbo Xs Type S not 100% sure im going to buy it from. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem

I am having custom chargepipe built.

3" downpipe to either 3" or 2.5" apex'i n1 full exhaust.

Also i believe i want a p28 ECU what do you guys think.

I would choose a better manifold. That one has the wastegate placement over one runner, like the drag manifold. It may not effect you at first, but if you run a free flowing exhaust, you will most likely experience boost creep. Also, what EMS do you plan on running?

yeah, EMS is engine management. If you are running a p28, are you gonna run hondata, uberdata, chrome etc... You will need to get larger injectors and a walbro fuel pump would be a plus too. As for manifold, look into a inline pro manifold, or there are tons of people in the forced induction forum that make them and sell them on here. Check out Spoolin Performance, phil is a real nice guy, and does great work from what i hear.

i would recommend going with something like uberdata/crome for engine management/tuning if your on a budget. that would require getting your p28 chipped.

although id like to sit and type out everything you would need here, try searching or looking through the FAQ's. you'll find alot of useful information on there.

goodluck

Umm.. I will say this, from building my kit(not finsihed yet) this stuff adds up fast.... and the list can get pretty long.
If your just gunna turbo your stock motor with no plans for anything bigger best thing would be to get a kit, like greddy.
