CA Buying a turbo s5 motor, help

hey guys, so i decided it would be best for me to just get a new transmission and stock turbo 13b engine all in one
could you guys suggest any places that sell a new or used complete s5 13b motor
I found this: http://www.bestofjdm.com/category-s/152.htm
if you can check that out and tell me what you think it would be highly appreciated

thanks for all your help
