What is the part that costs $20,000 about a 20b conversion? What's so expensive to do? Can you perhaps give a price break-down (roughly?) I'm not trying to sound like a smart-*** or something, I'm just curious what's the expensive part, I know it's not cheap to do, but I didn't know it was that crazy.

ALL of this has been covered MANY times before. There have even been detailed price breakdowns showing cost ranges from $10K to infinity. Please use the search feature.

Common sense dictates that you would have the 20B core rebuilt, either by a professional or by yourself. This act of rebuilding adds quite a bit to the cost of the conversion.
Plus, you have to upgrade the radiator, clutch, aftermarket turbo or try to get the stock twin-turbo system to work, etc.
It really does add up.
