Default need serious help with turbo kit

Alright heres the deal I bought a del sol (d16z6) and I have the money to turbo it, but I would like to build my own kit. I know greddy has a mani that will support ac and bolts up to a 15g turbo. Thats what I have been looking for that past week and I cant find anything. So now I am thinking there has to be an alternative route to take. I would like to keep ac and have that mani bolt up to a similar turbo that wont get in the way of anything. So pretty much a diff mani and turbo that wont cause any problems, but pretty much the same and the greddy mani with the 15g. So please if anyone knows what I can do now let me know. Or if anyone knows anyone that is selling a used greddy kit or mani or turbo that will work let me know. I have money.
Thank you,
Matt

There's a lot of options out there that will work. Some of the log style manifolds you can buy will also support a/c and you can ask for different flanges for different turbos, pretty much what you can find.

If you are going the HMT way, get the turbo first, a pretty good choice is a T3 from like a volvo or saab, then get the manifold.

Look at the classified adds

You are going to need to make a custom manifold for sure. There are not many AC support D-series manifolds around other than log manifolds. Thats why the greddy kit is good for something. Its easy to bolt on and go, and supports ac. If you have fabrication skills or know someone who does you can make a pretty nice manifold and fit a decently sized t3 in your car.

Take a look at this thread

Stuff a 60-1 T3/T4 turbo in there with AC using a log mani.
