low budget twin turbo set

i am looking toward putting twin turbos on my 03 common rail... this is what i am going for i will be using a stock 24v manifold flipped upside down with the stock common rail turbo on it to spool a BHT3B Secondary charger wich is a 91.2mm turbo, the problem i am facing now is where can i get the tubing to connect the turbos? or where can i have tubes made for it at a reasonable price? so far i have 550 bucks in the 91.2mm turbo and 60 bucks in the stock 24v manifold and of course head studs will be added.... does any one see a problem with my idea? and have any ideas on getting tubes for it?

thanks justin

make your own tubing it would be a lot easier if you have some welding skills

I just finished building a he351 s475 twin set for my truck. I made all of the pipes and did all the welding. Everything turned out great and the truck runs like never before. My advice to you if you don't have the tools to do it yourself it is not worth piecing a kit together. After you buy all of the little parts you will not save much of anything. Sell the stuff that you got and buy a set from MPI, wicked, or any vendor of your choice. It took me 3X longer than expected to do it myself and I would not do it again. I forgot to order a 1/2" spacer and then longer studs. My truck was down for 3 weeks while i waited for stuff to come in the mail.
