I wanna go boost? advice needed.

First off, im getting a new engine soon.
Only ones i can really find are 80,000 miles.<is that ok, or lower>
Im going 5spd at the same time.<refurbished off ebay or with factory with decent miles>
And Should i just buy a Turbo~kit or should i just but a bunch of outright parts off ebay and just build slowly. I dont really plan on turning boost up all the time but ya think it Could still be a somewhat daily driven.

I noticed the kit was like 3400.00 <is that a current price now>
I also went online a bit and noticed i could bulid just about that same turbo for about 2700.00<am i smokin pole with this idea?>

any help is appreciated. west

The piping is what's going to set your price. You can search for values on the rest of the goodies but you're not going to find much on the piping as the only people with any kind of actual production are PFI Speed and wherever HLH gets his goodies. You might want to contact those sources for info on pricing piping and then compare that to what you can get locally.
