$3600 for the turbo kit?

You could swap a 2ZZ-GE for less. Not MUCH less, but less.

Thats just the kit too...I wouldn't be serious about a turbo swap without getting beefier internals for FI. Then comes the piggyback ECU, clutch, yadda yadda yadda.

I mean if you got the dough for it, I'd do it too. But a budget weekend Autox / reliable DD? Probably just stick with 2ZZ-GE. Could probably do a 2ZZ MR-S with a total budget of $12k, including car purchase.
