Default H23 turbo kit

Ok so I am going to boost 4psi on my h23a non vtec and was wondering if you guys could help me piece it together for a low cost looking to spend maybe 600

Found a nice ram style manifold for $163 shipped on ebay that comes with a short down pipe

getting crome for tuning system

need
Intercooler piping
turbo (looking for a 14b or something small with a t3 flange)
oil lines
bov
boost gauge
boost controller not sure for 4psi or not

thanks a bunch for helping me out guys

Aren't fmu's unreliable and also i don't really know what makes up a good manifold just heard that the ram style is good do you think that an ebay one would do me good at 4psi thanks

Basically those manifold will crack after heating up and cooling down over and over again. The welds are gone over with a tig to give the welds there nice appearance. I owned a d-series tubular and after about 2 months it started to crack, the small "support" rods they came with broke off within two weeks. Your best bet would be to man up and pick up the bigdaddys solid manifold that will not crack. Get some dsm 450 injectors, ebay intercooler for low boost applications like yours, and hit up Racing Solutions for some cheap piping, get your all your oil lines, couplers, Turbo of your choice, wasstegate if its external, and chip your ecu tune accordingly, ------ simple
