Default Turbo plans!

So Im getting closer to my homemade turbo project. Heres a list of what I have so far...

CRX HF manifold
14b DSM turbo, downpipe, BOV
DSM intercooler

What else do I need??? The engine is a D15B7 with a D16Z6 head, aka the mini-me. Is that combination going to be to high of a compression ratio to boost? I still need a head gasket, and Im not sure how thick it needs to be. Im thinking 450cc injectors also. Im not worried about pistons yet. I just want to make sure this setup will work and if theres anything Im missing or any helpful advice. This is my first turbo tune and im new to it so any info would be awesome.

1) make sure the turbo manifold is flanged for a mitsu turbo. If it's not a greddy turbo kit manifold, I'm willing to bet it's not.
2) 14b's are...well....lousy turbos IMO. You'll get tired of it quick. Very quick.

If you're running a 14b turbo, 450cc injectors might be slight overkill to, IMO. You could likely get away with 380cc injectors.

good luck

if you're really wanting to get 450cc injectors, I have some that I bought off e-bay and never used. It's the dsm 450's and I have the resistor box with it also. They're all cleaned up and ready to install. Lemme know
