DIY 5-7 psi turbo recommendations...
buying a full on greddy kit or begi kit is just too expensive for me at this time. I am looking to piece together the turbo kit myself. Is there anyone that could help start me off of the hardware that i need? i guess we can start with the turbo, nothing to big but has upgrade potential. looking to keep at low levels of boost and will upgrade injectors and ecu when i decide to up the boost. i have a 91 1.6

i did mine for just under $1000, of course not including megasquirt. search for my build thread. of course, i did get lucky with the manifold which is a used custom built ETD shorty. You could modify the cast ebay manifold to accept the subaru flange. subaru TD04 turbos can be had really cheap for what they are, a VERY quick-spooling turbo that wont fall off boost at the top either.
