Ive got chance of a 960 3.0 how much would it cost to turbo it?

Prices can be a tough thing to provide considering there may be a lot of custom work needed.
Off the top of my head you'll need:
Turbo
Exhaust manifold (custom made or modify one from a T6 engine)
Exhaust system (or at least a downpipe)
Intercooler or other type of intake cooling system
Associated oil/water/intake pipework including fitting oil drain into sump
Maybe an Oil cooler
Standalone ecu and someone that can tune it
<insert rest of list here>
Don't forget that this engine is not designed to run a turbo so you could have many problems with it (thinking con rods may be weak, cams are for NA, compression ratio higher).
You could fit a T6 engine from the later cars which are already set up for a turbo but then you would need a modified sump.
A T5 engine would be easier as the ecu and tuning options already exist, though there would still need to be a lot of work to fit all the ancilliaries.
Would you do most of the work yourself?
1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.
1996 Nautic Blue 850 AWD - Failed its MOT, now it's a donor for the green thing.
2004 Sapphire Black S60 D5 - The new daily hack.
for a turbo, best bet would be to contact proflow, they make one for the VEs. Would be much more cost effective, and probably make more power.
