Before this is locked... Search again. Compression #'s depend on your location and generally be close to each other. Sell everything you have, and buy a kit from either a member here or from Hahn. I've built a few other set-ups and you just don't seem to have the pre-hand knowlege to build something yet.
Edit: just PM me and be more specific with your goals and actual set-up. Please search though there is about 4 years of crash and burn set-ups that everyone has learned from.

Ya there is a write up, in the SEARCH section! You didnt search enough...
Yes your missing stuff, you would have found out everything you need by using the SEARCH button!
First off, a manifold from a turbo car (im guessing your talking about a 4g63) will NOT work. Well it could, but I doubt you wanna try to make it work.
Ok good, you didnt forget about replacing the fule pump
You will need an FCD or ML
SFMU or FPR
and lastly, the mouse on your computer to click the SEARCH button.
