I think you need to take your ego down a notch, cause it sounds like it got hurt.

If I wanted the whole "it won't work because you don't have a 13BT and T2 tranny speech" I would of just asked for that....I mean seriously?!

PLEASE DON'T PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH.
I did NOT say those words, and if all you could do was infer that statement, you have a poor grasp of the English language.
Is English not your primary langauge?
If so, I apologize for assuming so.
Go reread what I posted - I never said once "it won't work."

This thread is about turbo charging a NA motor which has already been done safely by numerous people. It's what I have available so that's what I'm gonna go with.

No, this thread is about you wanting to turbocharge your non-turbo engine with a turbo that can boost from low RPM's all the way up till redline while keeping it "cheap."
Did I miss anything there?

And what I mean by "somewhat decently tuned" is that it runs very well for not having been put on a dyno. The tune isn't perfect yet but it also isn't finished yet. I have a very firm understanding of how turbocharged systems work and are put together and practical experience to back it up-just haven't done a system on a rotary yet.

I never said anything about a dyno.
If you have a "firm understanding of how turbocharged systems work" then you wouldn't be ASKING US these questions.

There is nothing wrong with the Megasquirt EMS and I have a lot of time and pride in building, wiring, and tuning my car with it and I believe that it is the best system out there, better than most any Haltech or other EMS systems. It has more features and can be used on virtually any engine combination that exsists. It also costs less than a Haltech does. I am one of the first people to run a stock unmodified CAS with full sequential fuel injection using a MS3X expansion board-and it works perfect.

You claiming it's "better than most any Haltech is other EMS systems" is wrong already.
Your ego can't take it I called it "crap."
You're another one of those My-Megasquirt-is-better-than-everything-else chip on your shoulder cause you did put in the time and effort into building something that (barely) runs your engine...with the catch word "cheaper" as your ace-in-the-hole.
This just shows you're ignorant of what is available out there and the whole concept of what an EMS does.
You're lucky RICE RACING doesn't come in here and call you a "****."

But anyway, I don't need to explain myself to you cause because your approval or opinion of me doesn't mean dick. The only thing I'll apologize for was using the word "cheap". Your right, there's nothing about doing something like this that's cheap. Frugal should of been the word used. I don't have a problem with spending the money in the right places-just didn't want to waste money on the wrong things trying to build a good turbo setup (that isn't half ass).

I don't really care of your approval or what you think of me.
I don't come on here feeding babies with a silver spoon just because they act like spoiled brats.
If you're willing to spend the money...
Get a Garrett GT35R - GT3582R specifically.
Get rid of all of the stock intake system.
Build an efficient, custom intake manifold system with plenum for the set-up.
Build an efficient turbo exhaust manifold for the turbo.
Run at least 3" for exhaust.
Everything else is a given or self-explanatory.

Hence the reason why I asked for advice on a forum that came highly recommended by others. I'm now questioning that...

I am in no way a representative of this forum when replying to you.
If you're going to make a global opinion of this entire forum just because you cannot deal with me, then that your ignorant choice.

Anybody have advise on good FMIC setups? Fabricate my own or does a good quality setup already exist?

Didn't you just say...

I have a very firm understanding of how turbocharged systems work and are put together and practical experience to back it up

So either this is a lie, or you have no clue what you're getting yourself into...
