Building a motor and trying to save money at the same time never really works. Do you need the .70 compressor housing right now? If not concentrate on getting the motor as good as your finances allow, then look at turbo mods down the track.

Get a few quotes before you get your car taken anywhere. Had the same dilemma with the ute a short time ago with the head lifting at 400rwkw causing extreme detonation on all 6 pistons - to the extent that chunks of spark plug were embedded where the valves seat. :(

Try John at brisbane tuning and turbo, and ask him about the blue ute. He took took the engine out and apart after he was given the vehicle sans manifolds/pipework etc and installed a new longblock. Well priced, nothing was a hassle, and even ended up with more power at less boost and timing after his tune.

There are others around, just get a few prices before you shell out your hard earned.
