Default Engine Swap

Ok, In June im planning on doing a N/A to turbo conversion in my mr2. I am going to order a rear clip w/ a jspec motor. Im having problem finding somewhere that will do it. I've tried a couple places and they have told me its a very complicated swap. Money is not a concern, just trying to find somewhere that can do it and do it right. If anyone knows of somewhere please let me know. Thanks

theyre only asking a grand??!? the cheapest ive ever seen was $1200. i would need you to supply a place to work and tools, so any military base would work. but id prolly do it for a grand depending on what im given to work with.
