VL turbo bosch external fuel pump - $220
Bosch External surge tank - $120
Throttle body cut and shut for ff to fr - $100 MAX
New clutch - $300
wiring - either free if doing myself or about $300 for workshop

Check that motor comes with loom and computer.
Forget the VL turbo pump cos thats way too much. I went to a wreckers and got a VL N/A pump(which is the same thing) for $80
Dont forget thermos again wreckers you can get a toyota one with correct plug for about 10bucks
and you will need a lift pump if using a surge tank
after all that you will realise the AUDM sprinter brakes are crap!

As above,
Lift pump, $20-100
Also,
Exhaust from extractors back, $200-lots
And $300 may not be enough to cover all the little incidentals. Probably in the right ballpark though.
Consider doing all the usual "engine from a wreckers" things like full fluid change, water pump, timing belt etc... Depends on your budget, but it has all been discussed before. Search for it if you're interested.
Good luck
