A fully built FA20 may still throw an arm rocker through the valve cover, may still get a P0016/18 code whose fixing may require up to replacing the ECU (among other sensitive annoyances of the FA20), while also still needing to beef up the transmission, which cheapest is swapping a CD009 from a 350Z in place at a cost of around $4k.....
After adding up building the motor, turbo kit with all supporting mods, upgrading trans, you're already in swap money territory where you'll get a more reliable, proven and known motor and transmission that will hold strong for years to come.
