I am a noob on here but not a noob with EF's

I'll start off with some history....I had an 89 civic sedan with a b16 with CTR pistons in it. I sold the whole swap to a local kid for 2600 bucks and he gave me his stock D16A6 swap also. I did all the labor also. I had 2600 bucks to spend soo i wanted to go built turbo D. I bought a stage 3 clutch and flywheel brand new for 300 off a friend. Another friend sold me a Y8 long block dirt cheap and i rocked that with the clutch/fly setup for about 500 miles while i was gathering my turbo parts. I spent about 1200 bucks on my whole turbo setup. Heres a pic of it all on.

So i rocked the Y8 on like 10 psi and 2 weeks later the oil pump gave out causing a nasty rod knock. That same night i picked up a mint y7 with 60k for 150 bucks. Had it all back together running in about a day. That was on a Friday, then on sunday night my oil light went on and it started knocking again. So i was like screw it. I wanted to start on my built motor. Well it happens this other local kid really wanted my Sedan.. He had this rust free Ef hatch. He would not leave me alone about trading shells. The car was in great shape soo i was like what the hell, i was getting sick of my sedan anyway. So now that leaves me owning a rust free EF hatch with new paint. I threw on my bmw bottle caps and cleaned the car up a little. Day after owning it i bought an auto power roll bar and mint SI seats off a friend.

I have less then 2600 bucks into everyone in and on this car.

So my motor consits of.
-std bore z6 block notched for rods
-CP 9.0 :1 CP pistons
-Eagle rods
-ACL bearings
-Delta turbo cam with hks cam gear
-t3 t4 garret 60-1 turbo (.60/.63 57 trim) huge!!!
-Ebay front mount
-greddy Type S BOV
-450cc injectors for now
-2.5 bar map
-chipped pm6 with turbo edit
-oem head gasket with copper spray
-all oem gaskets and seals
bah bah bah list keeps going

anyway. i put the motor together..

budget only means there is a set allowance, a determined amount to work with, =). 2600 is a good amount, if you can do the work your self, but i can not , there for, 2600 gets me almost there, =). so ever you ever come out to cali? =P
