I could go on but it comes down to if you want to do it right or half ass it and maybe blow up your engine. I would probably get a 14b and a turbine housing for it and get that bolted up and then go from there using the 2g boost controller until you get an AFPR and boost controller and then I wouldn't go much past 14lbs psi until you get dsm link and injectors. And a 14b can do 22lbs of boost but it won't last long and on a SMIC you arent supposed to go past 16psi because of heat soaking.
Just so you know, All MHI 16gs of every varient came with a 7cm turbine housing. And if he does buy a 14b he can simply port it. And if you are referring to my post about running 22 psi on a 14b, it lasted a year and is still being used to this day by the new owner. Tuned with ECMlink of coarse. And it was using a FMIC not a SMIC.
