No 1.6 discrimination here, just put $800 into a Artech setup myself.
How cheap is cheap? I'm assuming since your not asking us about eBay setups you know not to go down that road, but are we talking a $500 used setup or $1000?

I'm looking to spend around 1000$ (+/-) for everything in the list. I already have a turbo and a BOV, so that's why I think that's not a bad budget for someone who's only planning to run lowish boost and not religiously track the car.
^ Well, the MS is going to be the biggest and most expensive component of the setup... So I guess depending on how much I can pick that up for (looking to see if I can find someone upgrading to MS3 and buy a used MS2 for cheap).
Any advice?

Get a FM manifold and Fm DP. I will sell you my SR20 turbo and my FM turbine outlet. The wastegate is adjustable and set for 7psi. The turbo will be fine at 15psi. You need this shiz.

$200 or $300 added to your budget would be perfect.
$710 artech ----
$300 used MS
$50 used 440s
low PSI you should be using an internal wastegate, do you not have one on your turbo?
That's $1060, and like I said an extra $200-300 would get you your intercooler and clutch if you shop used.
Seems like a lot of the crappy ebay/cracked units are the ones in the classifieds, people like hanging on to the good stuff.

I'm speaking mostly of ebay manifolds and downpipes. There's a huge problem with them. They'll crack within weeks, if you're lucky.

Not too sure about the turbo, nor am I sure about anything regarding turbo setups. Like I said I'm new to the turbo scene, and the car scene in general.
Appreciate the bumps and advice.
