well its from a mate and i dont know how much im finally going to end up folking out but it will be considerably cheaper than any other option...
this guy (if your from birmingham -) is well known for breaking rs turbos and in the past he has rebuilt many engines all of which are rated not only by their owners but everyone....for example he made a 1.6 cvh with 250 proven bhp and the engine has done 40'000 miles and nothing has gone wrong yet apart from a gearbox...mostly to do with how the car is setup but shows something about the build aswel..

hi m8, just finished doing my rebuild, wasnt as expensive as i thought.
Ł500 for forged low comp 1mm pistons
Ł425 for my local engine place to rebore,hone, re-grind crank,fit the pistons, supply arp bearings and shells. And lighten and balance everything.
I brought the oil pump and water pump from ebay, brand new, oil pump was geniune Ł15, and a non gen waterpump for Ł8, and their fine!!.
