i dont need to get links for those prices man. there are DIYs in our section that shows how to put together a turbo setup for 1k off of ebay parts. the links are all there i do believe. if not its just a little click around and search on ebay. it takes about 10 minutes and 1 grand to get a great turbo setup.

personally...id rather go with a garrett t3 turbo...but that will jack the price up a hundred or two....but you will be set for boosting higher when you change your internals. a t25 wont make more than 15psi and a t3 would get more power out of the psi. HKS for the manifold and BOV (make sure the manifold is flanged for the right turbo and for a 44mm Tial wastegate), get the 44mm Tial wastegate. you could get a pre-made downpipe off of ebay but that would crank the price up too.
