Re: how do u guys do it?
So far my kit has cost:
new log manifold, used downpipe, slightly used .42/.48 t3, oil feed line - $285
dsm bov, dsm 450s - $80
new fmic, new charge piping/clamps - $200
Spent $565 so far but don't need too much more.
We checked all the big junkyards around here and you're lucky to find anything...

tell me about it man. I wasn't doing any ghetto ---- either, but damn. Everytime I tallied up my stuff, it came out to like 2k. I can't weld any of it, I don't have a welder, and I was almost buying everything new. Can you still call it homemade?

I don't know how to weld (nor own a welder).... nor do I have any good tools, so I can't really fab anything myself.
