Default Rate my setup!!

Yes, it's that time again! and its about time... been reading thiese boards for about 3 months now and finally have part numbers for my future setup, so tell me wutcha think:

Car-
1991 acura integra GS
5 speed, a/c, cruise control

GOAL-
To maximize performance while retailing drivability, A/C and PS. More for street and autocross.

Current Mods-
www.project-integra.com
This turbo setup will be the ONLY performance mod when finished. it will go onto a stock B18A1 with 160k miles. ALL maintenance has been done.

Grocery List-
Garret T3/04e trim 50 A/R .63 --- new $549(cheapturbo.com)
BMC manifold /w external wastgate --- new $160
BMC a/c compatible downpipe --- $40
Johnnyracecar 30x6x2 FMIC --- new $240
Tial 38mm wastegate 6psi --- used $200
Greddy Type S BOV --- used $150
Stealth's oil line kit --- $100
Chipped PR4 /w TurboEdit --- $200 for everything (burner, chips, pcm...)
DSM 450cc injectors --- used $50
Charge Pipes --- $150 local shop
Misc --- $200 (gauges, adapters, gaskets, plugs, fittings etc...)

And thats to get her up and running

future mods will be added to this... boost controller, turbo timer, yada yada. So there it is. I should be just under 2 grand for everything. My main concern is my turbo size. is it too big? i'm only going to rev limit at 7500 so a small spool time would be better for me. Any parts that you know of work better for what I want than what I listed? you know of any place to find them cheaper? anything i left out? let me know!!
thanks!!!

lol. I don't know how many hmt members go to my site and want to buy an oil line kit for $100. Hmt family gets oil lines for $90. (You just cut your cost by $10!!!)
