There is always the under estimation of a conversion cost.

Basically the straight conversion to 1G-GTE you can get the engine for $750 yes...

You'd be better going for an engine package ~$1500 which should be engine/Gearbox/Loom/Computer. If it is a fresh Import it shouldn't need to be rebuilt. (and parts can be tricky and expensive to get.) That gives you the basics. from there you need to modify the Crossmember to fit, wire up the engine, and sort out the fuel and intercooler piping + intercooler & exhaust system.

The otherway is to go for a front cut ~$2500 which will give you all the pissy parts that start to blow out these projects. like intercooler + stuff that can be resold.

A fresh Imported engine should turn in the realm of 130-150 rwkw using factory computer. more than enough for the car.

From there to get it on the road you will minimum need to upgrade the front brakes @ ~$1000-1200 If you search for good prices.

Top get your 200rwkw (I assume you mean 200 at the wheels) you can increase boost up to around 15psi and run an aftermarket computer will put you very close to 200 without touching the engine. from there HKS single turbo kits can be sourced for less than $2000 and will piss in the 200 mark.
