Questions about Boost - parts list
I drive a 2002 accord ex (4cyl) and as we all know it is a slow *** car stock, so I'd like to boost it at about 6psi daily and 9psi max. At 6psi I'm hoping for 180whp, around 210whp at 9psi. While yes, there are kits available for my car, they are $3400 for a decent one and i'd rather build my own.
So far I know I need/have decided on:
Walbro pump
440 or 450 injectors
SAFC
RHB5 or t3/t4 turbo
johnnyracecar 5" or starion fmic
2g dsm diverter valve (yes the plastic one)
drag exhaust manifold (preferably)
Wastegate
Downpipe
Oil Cooler
Tranny cooler
my question is, I know i'm missing a lot of stuff as far as what I'll need for parts. Will i need a missing link or a new fuel pressure regulator? I'm not trying to go all out here, so i don't need $1000 solutions like a stand alone, but realistic ones. So what other parts will i need? And how hard will it be to get my hands on the right downpipe? Last question, I bought and installed magnaflow dual exhaust so i could turbo, but now someone told me that isn't free-flowing enough. Won't my exhaust be fine? thanks in advance, i know i am asking a lot of questions

Intercooler piping
Missing Link (synapseengineering.com)
Oil feed line (braided from fast-turbo.com)
T fitting for oil feed on top of turbo
Fitting to tap into back of block where oil sensor is for feed line
Return line (braided from fast-turbo.com)
Return line fitting for oil pan (fast-turbo.com)
And..if you are not looking for serious power there is no need for an oil cooler or tranny cooler. If the car is an automatic then you should get the tranny cooler.
Good luck.
