That'd be ok, but I'm unsure of the type of manifold that is. If it's OBX (SSAutochrome), then it's pure garbage.

do you think the workmanship on the turbo itself is of good quality?

can't say anything about the turbine and the intercooler without looking at detailed pics...

Not to mention that those pictures aren't even of what you'd receive.
