Default Need some help finding a 4-bolt rebuilt turbo & setup questions

Alright, I spent alot of my money getting an AEM EMS since from what I have gathered, the power and reliability is all in the tuning. I plan to run the new OBX mani since from what I have seen its the best bang for the $. My biggest question is the type of turbo I am gunna need, I have a B18B and I am going to rebuild it this summer, probably gunna go with eagle rods and some pistons but I don't want to have to spend any money on the head if I don't have to, just replace the parts with stock ones. My question is anyone know of a good place I can get decent rebuilt turbos from, with out having to grab my ankles?

I spent all my cash on the ems but after seing the new OBX manifold in person, and since it has lifetime warranty, why the hell not?

Even though they claim lifetime warranty, but its ony from manufacturing defects. When it come to manufacturing defects there are coutless of loop-holes that they can use to ---- you over. I believed you are a bit misinformed and taking the "it's all in the tuning" saying too literal. I want to see somebody with a HF, a junkyard turbo with some over-priced EMS such as hondata, AEM or even Neptune that is to run 10s.

I have not bought any manifolds yet... I was lookin at the new obx ram horn style mani. I am glad I went with the ems tho, I got it for $750 almost 8months ago. Since everyone is starting to flame me for the manifold choice, what are some manifolds that don't have such a bad reputation, and that won't cost a fortune?
