Question Turbo II swap

How much would it cost to get a used engine, transmission, driveshaft, rear axle and rear differential? I have an upgraded radiator on my NA right now, so I think it could handle the cooling duties. I searched the archives and whatnot and I couldn't find a general price on this stuff.

5lug upgrade can cost you 100-200 depending on the deal you get and how complete it is

Diffy's vary, i have one for 75 but shipping would kill you
axles are pretty cheap

upgraded radaitors cost 250+ from what ive seen

tranny's. who knows, 150-300 seems pretty common

driveshaft, i sold one for 60 shipped

engine, S4 jspec are usuly under 1k complete, S5 jspec' a lil more, sometimes you can get deals on running motors people pull from there projects, you can get rebuilds from various people, rotary ressurction being the least expensive however he is on the other side of the country to you, there are probably many builders in your area, however that can range 1k+

or buy a core, rebuild it yourself for easly less than 7-800

A good place to find these prices is to browse where the parts are often sold, most things you mentinoed are probably for sale in the 'parts for sale' section of this forum

In decent shape? If so, that'd be awesome, because the swap replete with a FMIC would run me around 2500 total.

Also, I have an HKS sport exhaust. Would I have to get a new cat-back exhaust after the swap, or could I simply run the turbo II exhaust system to the cat-back?
