im planning on doing the same thing, a 3.0L and turbo setup. i talked to terry haines, and he says im looking at about $10,000 - $11,500 in parts. he didnt quote me on labor because he would have to figure it up but im guessing around another $5000 for labor. things that were included in my cost was a 3.0L long block, new pistons and bearings, new gear box or upgraded stock one, LSD, clutch, flywheel, mondeo radiator, chris hightower turbo, and electric water pump... im probably thinking of doing this in stages as well, so the suspension would come next like brakes and such.. but right now, im just planning on saving my money for this huge project. still not sure if im going to go through with it, i may buy a honda S2000 instead.
