a custom setup can be a great way to build up a good cheap turbo setup, but you MUST know what you're doing.
if you get a turbo that does nto have an internal wastegate, you can always get a tial external wastegate and a .5 bar or lower spring which would give you around 7 psi or less. (depending what you get)
I've never dealt with water cooled turbos myself, but oil cooled turbos require oil sending and return lines, (in which case you need to know thread sizes for the sender line and such to make it work properly
