that same TACOTACO guy from ebay sells kits with out manifold, now OBX has a nice manifold for XA and XB's, the down pipe is the only thing i'm missing.. i spend 1800, including shipping and all i got was the manifold, all piping, intercooler, waste gate, BOV, E-maneg, injectors, nology wires, MSD ignition, Boost control, and 2 gauges. boost and exhaust temp.

Do you have it done yet? I'd like to know how you came up with a turbo setup for $1,000.

Just remember, you get what you pay for. If you go with cheap components now, it will end up costing you a lot more in the long run.
