Default Integra Gsr turbo question

I am boosting my gsr very soon, and im in the market for buying turbo parts. I will only be boosting 6-7 lb because this is my daily, and it has stock internals. Will the turbo manifolds by turbo xs, and ss superchrome work on my car, and let me retain my ac? I am trying to avoid spending 400 on a drag or revhard manifold just so I can keep my ac. I know if i do get the turbo xs manifold ill need a slimfan, but is there anything else I will have to do? I know it is a cheap manifold, and cracks under high boost, but for my setup it is perfect, and just what fits my pocket, so please just help me answer the question and not trash my thread. Also anyone had any experiences buying the whole turbo kit off ebay. I heard you have to really work to get the kit on your car, and it never fits right. Let me know your experiences with buying cheap ebay turbo shit.

I wouldn't pay $150 for an SSAC manifold that is known to crack quickly when you can get JG Fab or even a used HKS for around $200.

a drag manifold allows you to retain your ac. i've seen pics on honda-tech and trust me a ssac manifold is the worst thing you can do.

Same thing everyone else said. SSAC also have very poor quality manifold's for dsm's. I would spend the extra money on a quality piece now, instead spending more money later.

if moneys and issuse go with a drag or rev hard manifold. if you got a little more to spend an inline pro is where its at. i retained my ac on my rev hard manifold but now im runnign a tubular manifold and got rid of the ac. your motor will hold 10-12lbs on a good tune. im not a fan of fmus either, youd be better off spending the money and getting uberdata or crome with some injectors. your motor will thank you as well =]

Let me know your experiences with buying cheap ebay turbo shit.
that right there tells you what ebay turbo kits are good for.

basically. its spend it now or spend it later on these type or things. one way or another you'll spend the money, its your choice when you spend it.
