Default is this everything that i need to make my custom turbo kit complete.

Custom turbo set up

Turbo manifold --- $ 130.00 ship
14b 5 bolt turbo --- $ 200.00 ship
3” down pipe --- $ 150.00 ship
Intercooler --- $ 200.00 ship
Pipe with blow of valve --- $ 150.00 ship
Oil feed and return line --- $ 70.00 ship
Silicone hoses/clamps --- $ 50.00 ship
hondata s200/ boost --- $ 400.00 ship
15 feet of vacuum lines --- $ 40.00 ship
Oil pan --- $ 100.00 ship
450cc fuel injector --- $ 200.00
pipe --- $ 100.00

this is my first custom turbo set up and it is going on a stock b18c1 with 5 psi. i did my research and came up with this set up. i have a few question i want to ask before i start on my project and i/me will try to do this myself.

1. is the hondata s200/ boost a plug and play or do i have to get my stock ecu chip first?

2. do anyone make pipe that are already bend to fit the turbo/ intercooler so all i will need is just the Silicone hoses/clamps ?

3. i'm looking at some oil feed and return line kit on ebay and does it include everything that i need ?

Really will not need a 3" downpipe with a 14b. And why are you paying $200 shipped for a 14b? Might want to pick up a boost gauge of some sort, AutoGauge makes a decent (same company as AutoMeter) mechanical for like $25 at Summit Racing. Check with Stealthmode on here for the oil lines, think you might save yourself some $$. Why run expensive *** Hondata when you could just do a chip? Especially since that 14b isn't going to push a whole hell of a lot of power. Not to mention it is way the hell undersized for a b18. You will be far out of it's efficiency range. I have an intercooler I can sell you for a bit less than $200 shipped as well. Let me know

is $200.00 a little too much for a 14b. so i can just chip my stock ecu and it will be good to go right. do the intercooler come with pipe.

The prices you are talking about are way too high especially for the 14b, i personally wouldnt pay more than $100 for a 14b , you seem to have all the major components down except for the small stuff like guages, cost of tuning etc. Intercoolers dont come with the pipes, you can just try to figure out how many bends you need, 45 degree 90 degree etc and just order them off one of our sponsors like lsdmotorsports, and just get some couplers and a length of piping from a exhaust shop and cut and mount your own charge pipes. I think you need to read up some more before you go out and start buying random parts you may never need or you could have gotten for less. Check out the for sale forum for some good deals on turbo parts. Good luck

wow if thats the prices u payed, u should have been able to put together the same setup or better for almolst $700 less.

a 14b will be a bit small for a b18, u should be looking for a bigger turbo.
