fc turbo project help

So after a long wait of almost a year of my car supposed to be worked on I went down and picked it up since the guy was moving. Well the stuff that was being told to me was being done wasn't and after paying a lot of money for nothing to be done I went down and picked up a car that looked like the pics below. I have never built a rotory and don't have much of a clue what to do on it.

Here is the list of stuff that is going on the car...
microtek computer
1000cc injectors
t04e turbo
trust fmic
acu volt
racing beat downpipe
and there is a lot of other stuff
but right now I am upset that I paid money for a car that was to be finished and waited for a year for a car and its not even close to being finished. Any help would be apprieciated. trying to figure what everything is.

See you in about a month. We'll get this right.

some people have responded just not as much as the old days jesus. I got a couple of fc guys that have tho that will help. Can't wait till you get out here jesus. Its not as scary of a build as people think, it will get built and be a beast when finished brap brap brap. watch out honda's and 240's for when the external wastegate opens up and sets you on fire as your being passed at tripple digits

not that hard

if i was in new jersey, i would gladly put it together for you because ive built a few rotors, but im in australia, so ill do my best to help you out. its basically in your case of piecing everything together, like a puzzle, from what i can see in the pics, you have mostly everything you need,

turbo

oil pipes and drain fittings to go with turbo

exhaust manifold (with port for wastegate)

two intake manifolds(both will work, just choose one)

two wastegates( you only need one)

intake elbow (will only work with intake manifold with 3 throttles)

dump pipe

intercoller piping (with blow off vlave fitting

blow off valve

a CDi unit

alternator with a two belt pulley

two crank angle sensors (distributor looking thing, only need one)

by the looks of it, a clutch plate

power steering pump

Theres three basic categories of parts, turbo(as well as exhaust), electrics, and driveline.

What you need to do is sort everything into their respective groups. find what fits on the engine and slowly piece it together. get on google and find some pictures of similar setups, and compare it to your parts and setup and try to mimmick it.

If you can put it together yourself (fairly simple, basic tools needed) it saves a major part of the cost, once its all together and if you cant get it started, take it to a workshop and if they know what theyre doing, they should be able to get it going for you. Ideally you should take it to a workshop to get it tuned any ways

Hope it helps, good luck

I have to relocate the power steering so the intercooler piping will fit.
Here is the update as of now
front mount installed, injectors 870cc and 1680cc getting installed today. Turbo and greddy exhaust manifold and greddy wastegate installed. lower intake manifold getting installed today.

waiting on some vacuum hoses, fuel pressure regulator and radiator hoses to come in so I can finish the build and assemble the rest of the motor. some minor stuff left and then the wiring starts.
