OK then.. what is your actual budget?
given that you're driving and MA61 - the 7mgte makes sense - but you're up for:
complete engine with loom and ecu
intercooler and associated piping
partial or full exhaust
wiring of engine
wiring engine into chassis loom
upgraded or refreshed cooling system
de/regass of aircon
new engine mounts
possible refresh of brakes
if converting to manual - bellhousing, gearbox, tailshaft, crossmember, pedal box, clutch slave/master, clutch, flywheel, pressure-plate, gearbox.
engineering
and if your search thru the bits for sale and tech threads on "7MGTE" you should be able to gauge prices.
also worth factoring in is the age/lifestyle of the donor engine - if it's had a hard life then the time between install and rebuild is shorter.
good luck!
cheers,
Charles.
