theres alot of people that have done this and all of the have cost them diferentlly. i have on mine close to 6K and i still havent finish so do the math. and another thing theres a ton of threads about turbo II swaps, so please seach and check the 1 gen FAQs

 

man that rude you shouldnt talk t9o new people like that on the forum

 

problem with searching is that it always brings up the wrong info anyway... like hijaced threads etc.
Anyway, a TII swap will cost anything from a few bucks to major money.
It depends on several things: can you do some fabrication yourself? (engine mount, modified front cover...) Do you have the parts? Can you get them cheap? Or expensive?
Want stock ECU/coils/... or go aftermarket EMS? Want to use TII transmission or not? Want FMIC?
You see, there are countless options here.
I paid about 1200 euro (1465US $) for my J-spec engine, which is cheap overhere. I also get about 750 euro back from selling my old 12A (bought it brand new, now has about 10k miles on it). By selling my other parts, I can keep costs low, but if you start from a stock car, you won't be able to sell anything.
Since I only just started the preparation work for the TII swap I cannot tell you what the final cost will be, but I guess it won't be cheap

 

It costs about $75, it takes about an hour and there are no modifications needed.

You should put one in your car. It's easy!

It'll also make your car fly like a bird.
