A12 is all that is needed for 150Hp ATW. They are cheap and everywhere. Id recommend the H89 head and double springs, a good cam and some ARP head studs.
Thats all that is needed for the power you are looking for.
Its probably about $1200 to put one of these together yourself. That includes all machining.
The new MS3 Pro ecu is out now, and is a very good thing. These are $1150 including a loom.
Costs would work out something like:
Engine $1200.
ECU $1100.
Ex Manifold $350.
In Manifold $500.(inc rail +fittings)
Injectors $200. (new seimens 600cc)
Fuel pump $210.(new bosch)
Sensors etc $300.(new 3bar delco,water&air temp,2xGT101`s for cam & crank triggers, and SH TPS)
New turbo $1100. (garret GT)

Extras $1000. For hoses, belts, fittings, exhaust, oil,filters etc.
----------
$5960
Heaps could be saved by using a SH turbo, making manifolds yourself and using used sensors and SH fuel pump. If you want to buy an SH ECU, Avoid Wolf, Microtech and anything older than about 10 year old unless its Motec.
A SH Motec would be fine ie, M4 or M48 (about $1000)
The new MS3 Pro is great value at $1100 tho.

BTW dont buy SH injectors.
