After countless hours of research I am ready to take an adventure!!
After doing tons of research on the topic I think I have finally decided to go on my turbo adventure. I have decided to build a mostly custom kit of my own. I feel that by assembling my own kit I can learn alot more about my car and I also feel that this is the most cost affective way for me to turbo my car. Since for some reason I can never keep that larger of a sum of money at one time to save up for a sf kit since something always happens.
Please post your comments or hot tips on what I should buy. I would like to also know which bov is the loudest
since that is a reasonably cheap part to buy I might buy that first.

Rep Power: 584 it just depends on the sound ur going for......oil feed and return lines are realatively cheap, wastegate, manifold,then u have to think about who is going to build u a downpipe for this custom kit, what exhaust u going to use, what intercooler, what piping, and WHAT TURBO are u going to use

Rep Power: 0 Hmm I have seen alot of positive feedback about the garret t3/t4 like the one used in the sf kits. I will prolly go with that and a tial wastegate the turbo xs boost controller and bov. I havent decided on the intercooler yet wether I want it to have both inlet and exit on one side like the sf one or a intercooler with one on eachside and I would buy the piping from sf aswell as the fuel system and alcohol injetion and tank.I am going to go with custom exhaust piping since I know a guy at a local shop, since going catless is out of the question here I will go high flow.
Any other suggestions and the reason I didnt go with a t25 is that I plan on an engine build up and would like a turbo with potential to be used after the buildup.
