Default first timer ls1 turbo build

hey guys im fairly new to the ls base but i do love it so far. im planning on doing a turbo build on my 99 trans am. i was wondering if i could get any input on dos and dont's. i was wanting to do the 6.0 reverse manifold set up but i cant find a crossover pipe so i might just buy my hot and cold side thru on3 i was wanting to keep it as simple as possible. any input would be appreciated.

I'm running this kit: http://shop.huronspeedproducts.com/F...s1turbokit.htm . The fit is great. I installed a TC78 and have had a lot of fun with it so far.

Edit: I just noticed that kit is temporarily unavailable. Their A/C retaining kit is on sale, however.

First question here is what is your budget? There are a lot of misc costs when doing a turbo build (correctly).
