Sorry, I should've clarified better. My manifold/downipe and some of the intercooler piping is kind of shotty, but it all holds together and it working fine, but the kit I put together used a garrett turbo, tial WG and BOV as well as a precision intercooler and all tuned on Megasquirt instead of using ebay parts and something like a piggy back controller with bigger injectors. If I would have someone finish up the intercooler piping and just go to a nice solid log manifold and a better stainless downpipe setup it would be nicer, but it all works even though it doesn't look the best. I didn't fabricate anything, but I put it all together myself on the cheap. Only thing my friends did was build the downpipe and wastegate dump. Just saying if you're going to build a turbo car, make sure you put money where it matters most if you're on a budget. Easy enough to do on a honda since I'm sure you could pick up everything used.
