I want people's input, advice on stuff to get, etc. I'm not doing a zzp or hahn kit or anything. I do have a good mentor though. and he was giddy when I told him I was perhaps thinking about doing this lol.
OK... gonna say this now....


just get a zzp kit. You can powdercoat or paint the pipes and turbo from there whatveer color you want. But piecing together a kit is way harder and more expensive to do.

I'm not sure about this particular situation, but most places will use some combination of silicon-aluminum and ceramic polymer, mixed with polymer dyes.
It withstands very extreme temperatures, and doesn't flake or peel off very easily once properly cured.

let me modify what i said.


It will be way harder and more expensive to piece together you own kit, and match zzps performance that could have been had with 3k+ shipping.

am i the only one seeing the easy button here? The only other kit i could think of that would be cheaper would be the BTF one which utilizes the stock manifold which is a pretty good idea since no one on here will ever reach the power where a stock manifold becomes restrictive.

Yup...doing it custom will suit my needs more, plus I may not like everything one certain kit has to offer, so this way I can pick and choose what I want to use, oh and I like to be one of a kind. And you will see the purple turbo, you just have to stick your head under the hood near the back lol.
