Its about 10k for the swap not hard but alot of stuff to do to finish it. If its worth it is up to you and what you want.

To ask if its worth it or not is completely up to the owner.J9FD3S did his FC for 10G's thats with stocker turbos and **** tho.Can be done if you want some serious bone stock go tho.

it can be done for 10k. getting the engine in the car is the easy part, all you need are k2rd mounts. its getting it working thats the hard part, you need an ecu, intercooler pipes, intercooler, exhaust, turbos? etc etc
