The B6-T is a great engine, but not on a budget.

I would go with a natrually aspirated BP from a Kia, Protege, or Escort GT. It's more cost effective to do it this way and turbo the BP later.

If you find a "front clip" from a jap spec GTX under $2500, consider that a bargin. It will have everything you need to make it run besides the trans.
