I'll also take Greddy Profec B/HKS EVC VI Boost Controller over a Manual any day. I will take a Bar/Plate design FMIC over a Tube/Fine design, and I can go on and on with different parts.

the greddy/mitsu turbos aren't BBs and we all know how well they work.
the OP doesn't need to go with BB turbos.

I'm just making a point to the other poster that not all parts are equal so you get what you pay for. I wish I have an EBC so I can set my boost on every gear but I have Utec BCS. Utec BCS is very cheap so I get what I paid for

A little update on progress.
Bought a roll of stainless steel mig wire for $26.00
Fabbed up the cross over pipes today, just waiting for the turbo to finish the up pipe and then heat wrap it.
