New 7MGTE, or rebuild current one?

OK.
Main question is above, Do I get a "new" imported 7MGTE ($1800 from SSS Automotive, with full wiring loom/computer).
OR Do I rebuild my current one?
At the moment I'm not sure if mine has a. forged pistons, b. metal head gasket (MHG) (been told it has).
If it has forged pistons I think I'd try to keep them, to keep the price down.
How much would a rebuild cost roughly? What should I get done?
The reason why is because my no. 6 cylinder is leaking 74%. and compression throughout is a bit dodgy. I'm switching my computer to a Delco either way (got someone to tune it as the guys at BD4s cost me $400 for a pressure test and a leak test. Both of which I didn't ask for. And they didn't know what a wastegate venting to atmosphere sounds like "The car was pinging" stupid idiots.)
If I can spend around the $2,000 for a bottom end rebuild (keeping the forged pistons in) including a 2mm stopper HKS MHG (about $700).
Sorry about the life story, but needed to get the right answers.
