Default 2000 LS turbo manifold

I needed some re-asurance with my turbo project. We are turboing my friends 2000 integra. This is what we have: T3 turbo
Downpipe
This is what we are going to buy. Let me know what you guys think (sudjestions)?
Jonnyracecar Intercooler
255 walbro
FMU
custom turbo manifold (He wants to keep A/C & power steering)
Boost controller
RFL Bov (not sure)
Blitz turbo timer
450 injectors (not sure if we need them)
custom piping
He wants to run as much boost as he can without doing internals. I told him to keep it below 10 psi. Comments!

I was thinking of that. Do you know of a good place to buy one cheap.
Do you think he can run @ leat 8psi with that?

Thanks!

aren't you supposed to build the downpipe after the turbo is installed? If you already have the downpipe your going to have to get a manifold that positions the turbo exactly how your downpipe needs it.

What i meant was that we have a down pipe that matches the turbo we are using.

Does your downpipe connect all the way to the cat or is it just a part of a downpipe.

What I was saying is every manifold doesn't position the turbo at the same angle. So if you get a manifold that positions the turbo at a different angle, then you won't be able to use 'your' particular downpipe.

looks good man.. just ditch the FMU for a AFC and the 450cc injectors. Everything else looks good. I'd stay below 10psi as well on a T3, but I'm sure the LS wouldnt mind be slammed with 10psi of boost though haha!

Thanks! i will try to stay below 10PSI.
Just one question. Do the 450cc just drop in?


Thanks for the help!
