Default Joining the B16 turbo bandwagon

This month i will be slapping on a turbo on my b16a1.
I have no experience on install so i am going to have a shop install it and tune it. It pretty cool b/c i know the people at the shop. Not only will they put it on for me they will teach me a few things or two!

Things that i have so far
t3/t4
25x8x3.5 intercooler
ssautochrome manifold (thinking about getting a revhard manifold)
2mm cometic head gasket
arp head studs
revhard fmu
turbo smart wategate
rc 310s
inline fuel pump
blitz bov
boost gauge A/F gauage
everything else the shop will provide IP, downpipe, tunning, etc.

i will be keeping the stock internal (financial aid only gives 3k) hopefully will be joining the 220-250 whp b16 crew! for now i just want to run my car safely at 7psi and just have fun. until i understand and do more reseach on the properties of my car i will upgrade and have a new hp goal!

what do you guys think? and should i get a rev hard manifold? has anyone used the ssautochrome manifold?

I have heard mixed reviews about the SS Autochrome manifolds. I know the older ones sucked, but I have seen some of the newer ones in person and the quality looks great on them. Revhard would be ok, personally I would get an inline-pro. PM me if you have any more questions.
