I would run different cams than that on boost, especially in a street car. Go with either your stock cams, type r cams, or a turbo grind cam.

Its usually better to just build the turbo set up from scratch. IE by the turbo from like garret or such. These days a lot of companys will give you shitty parts. like the Manifold and the like. Depending on what you want from your motor will change the setup you will want to go with.

I agree completly with this. The co. that will give you a good mani will give you shitty FMIC. Your best bet is to piece the kit together yourself. Doing it this way will probably be more expensive but you'll know what your getting and you'll have better quality parts.

homemadeturbo.com is a good site for making your own kits.
