Do you think I could buy the manifold and piping by itself? Also does anyone know what the manifold looks like? Thanks

I don't see why not. The manifold "basically" looks like a header with a flange on it for the turbo.

Then you have to have all of the piping made which may cost a pretty penny if someone has to figure out all of the bends and shtuff.

you can buy the header flange at teamD or south florida performance they average 450 to 600 and the pipes are fairly expensive. you should get away with 250$ for the pipes if you go 2 1/16th diameter a good front mount intercooler is 250 to 300 and then you need fuel management 200 for injectors if you shop around. 450cc to 500cc will suffice for up to 7 psi. I am using greddy Emanage with all the accessories i.e.. injector harness, pressure sensor, ignition harness, software for laptop, you will need oil fitting lines. I just used an oil filter sandwich adapter and added an oil cooler while i was at it. a good blow off valve is anywhere from 100 - 250. and then you have to decide on an external or internal wastegate, most exhasut flanges will let you use external. you will also need a downpipe, air fuel ratio gauge if you dont use a good fuel system tuner and also a boost gauge is nice. sounds hard but I have 98% of the kit done and I am no mechanic. (well not for a living anyways) But....... i do have a 132 I.Q. lol
