This is what I already have I 've done the 5-Speed conversion (which was very easy for me)
~C&R Radiator w/ Spal thin fans
~All my guages a/f, EGT, boost, oil press., and etc.
~Moroso stage 2 axles
~Apexi turbo N1 exhaust (3in piping)
~ACT stage 4 clutch
~Clucth masters light weight flywheel
~Apexi VAFC
~Apexi AVCR
~Apexi Turbo Timer
~Turbonetics T60-1 (housing coated red)
~And a boat load of other crap

What I'm tryin to say is that I knew I was going to go turbo, but I didn't know i was going to go so big. What I'm trying to do is try to be diffrent in this sick world of import tuning. every time I turn around someone else just bought the greddy turbo kit or some other kit I remember back in the day when if you wanted a turbo you would have to custom build it. So i'm trying to something not alot of people have done. My next step is to go ahead and get the internals to the shop but I plan to install the head work myself.

im in the process of an h22a buildup.
so far....total costs are over $5000....we paid $2500 for a less than 15,000 mile engine with a lot of parts that came with it. about $2500 is into the short block right now.

thats darton pro solid deck sleeves, balance to 11,000 rpm, eagle rods, JE pistons, coatings on al internals, ARP stud kits for the crank and head, cometic head gasket, and Unorthdox pulled, balanced stock flywheel. I expect the head will run about $2000 total as well...before the cams that is.

when all is said and done i think about $10000 will be into the engine and tranny...we have managed to save quite a bit of money thoug as we already had a set of eagle rods....also have skunk2 cam gears, aem rail, 450cc injecotrs (to start with), aem fpr, and a few other little things....anyway when its all done i dont think it will be very streetable....
plans for the AEM EMS, bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, bal bearing turbo (maybe a t-66) direct port nitrous kit, h23a1 tranny, cryotreated with a quaife, CM stage 5 (only til we can afford an RPS clutch), driveshaft shop axles are all going to come through later this yar since we can only spend about $700 a month on it right now.
