that gets you the turbo and intercooler and an engine (that may or may not be in decent shape). you might as well bolt a turbo to the side of your N/A engine for as far as that gets you.
in other words, you still haven't addressed engine control, the rest of the drivetrain, etc.

It was only one tranny, and that was a tranny that had 250,000 KM on it, with bad bearings, and that happened to be puking fluid...Broke the input shaft real nicely.The new transmission is in much better shape (no bearing noise, no fluid leaks, syncros nice and sweet) so I expect no problems.
