Since I'm moving to an LS, I'm separating from my engine setup. I just put this together about 8 months ago and have since been driving the car everyday with no problem. The setup has seen no more than 10,000 miles. This setup made 400whp and is guaranteed to put a smile on your face when you hit full boost. I ran 20 psi daily and went as far as 24 without ever seeing knock. My focus on the build was to keep the stock manifold and do an external waste gate modification as recommended by our member here codyace. It wasn't done by him per say, but done to his specs.

When I bought the turbo new, I chose the stock t25 style turbine housing for easy install. No modification had to be done or tial funny business. Although I wont include a dump pipe, any will fit and this bolts on easy. Gtx2867 /w .64 trim t25 style turbine exhaust housing. $1100

I added a bracket to hold the wastegate shut. I didn't want to run into problems later on with removing welds for whatever the case could have been.
