He'd probably spend atleast $100 just trying to find a good T25 turbo, manifold, and elbow. Then he'd still have to fuck around with the oil lines. Once he figure out how he's gonna do that, then he still have to fuck around with getting it tuned.

I've seen enough folks buy a damn Spec S S15, swap in an S14 SR20 and still save themselves $2-3k from buying a Spec R.
Trust me I own a built S14 Kouki SR20DET and just recently finished the S15 SR20DE+T for a friend. so I understand the cost factor and would definitely agree to go DE-T right of the bat should you have easier and affordable access to it. I'm simply stating if you have one now regardless where you are it's really not that bad of a platform to boost considering DET parts bolts in.
