B is a nogo unless you find a free or really cheap turbo manifold, Its all on the deals you can find. I did a friends D GHETTO for 523.55 (yess we added it up) but that was with making my own adapter plate and some really ghetto charge piping. Remember 5.0 f150s intake piping is your friend

for the oil lines I HIGHLY suggest getting the tuner toys fitting its much much much easier and faster than crappy brass tee's etc... aslo get couple other fittings for the drain from there. For the oil feed you can get a 3ft -4an ss line for like $20 and a fitting to go along with it $2 on ebay OR you can cough up $75 and get a COMPLETE oil feed/drian from stelthmode 
then you got your intercooler, bov, injectors, chip, wiring, you can find awsome deals here in the classifieds 
Good Luck!!

well if you want to run a douch FMU you can use the stock (240cc) injectors but if you care about your motor i would buy some dsm 450cc injectors and chip your ECU with Uber, im pretty sure on your car your going to have to put some resitors for your injectors...i dont know too much about that becuase i didnt have to do it on my car :P now is the time for you to start reading,searching, basicly learning every thing you possibly can BEFORE you attempt to boost your car

Re: $400 Limit to Turbo??
no i think those are 240cc also.....your going to need some off other Dimond Star Motors turbo cars that use larger injectors since there will be twice as much air flow you will need more fuel in the mix so you dont run lean and blow your motor
