Kits are hard to find, for sure, and I haven't seen any single-turbo one's at all.
I bought a set of Kook's headers and made little intermediate "wastegate boxes" to locate the turbos better and give a platform for the wastegates. Besides the headers, I designed, and my cousin welded, everything else.
I'm also using a blow-through carb from CarbShop and it seems okay, although I haven't really gotten into FINE tuning it yet. I'm sure that's when the head-scratching starts. EFI would be the way to go but the better stuff is still pretty expensive. Although the carb wasn't cheap it's still less than a quarter of what the EFI would cost.
I built pretty good internals for mine as insurance. Hopefully it will all stay together. I have 220cc heads and 8.1:1 compression, which wouldnt make any since in a non-boosted car. If I had built it like that thinking "maybe I'll do turbos later", the car wouldnt have made any power until I boosted it. So the combo was built around the turbos.
Good luck with the new project.
