Sure you can do it for $12 or whatever but it will be gettho and probably unreliable.I like home made but I just cant bring myself to do gettho.$1000 should be able to do a decent kit just need to find a used turbo and a cheap manifold.The rest can be bought for cheap from r ebay ---- like blow off,intercooler etc.Keep cruising the classifieds on here and ebay to find deals.Can you weld at least the chargepipes?You need a wire feed and at least more skill then a bag of autistic babies to do those welds.For silicone,oil lines etc just hit up local industrial hose/hydrualic shops etc.

You have to have the ability to fabricate everything that you don't want to buy. If you don't weld, add $400 and a punch in the face. The first kit is never your cheapest because you second guess how cheap you can actually do it.

Ghetto isn't the parts, it's the assembly of the parts- quote that one. ;)
