Agree with most that was stated above. If you spend some time on the net and especially local dsm boards, you can often find used parts at nearly half price of new.

A used exhaust, o2 housing, exh manifold, all work just as well as a brand new part. Most mechanical items are quite easy to visually check for condition as well so there is little risk in buying used.

Granted; turbochargers, electronics, injectors, fuel pumps and the like are always going to be a risk to buy used since visual checks don't mean much.

good luck with the build. Injectors, 550's, and a 2g maf should be on your list well before the 16g.
