My Festiva is already BP & aspire swapped. I did the Raceland coil overs, 2 1/2" mandrel exhaust, 255lph pump and a ton of maintenance stuff (plugs, wires, VC/dizzy gaskets, etc)
I've been collecting stuff for half a year now to do the turbo set up, and do it right. It's somewhat budget-oriented and not designed to be a ground-breaking build.
.63 AR T3 turbo - free
BP26 manifold cut/flanged for a Garrett T3 housing - $125 with the labor
2.5" V-band T3 housing with divorced wastegate hole - $30 eBay
SRT-4 bar/plate intercooler - free
eBay intercooler tubing, t-bolt connectors - $110 total
SAFC II - $100
Ford brown top low impedance 35pph injectors (may have to suck it up and get RX7 injectors) - free
SPEC stg. 1 BP clutch - $100
XR2 G series trans/intermediate shaft - $325 total
miata flywheel - $50
Deciding on a few things... (billet fuel rail with Kirban FPR, might possibly be re-inventing of the wheel), what size wastegate to get, and if I want to incorporate a vacuum-operated pre-cat dump valve.
The IC tubing will be a load of fun (sarcasm), since I am going to have to knock it off in one shot. It'll be a blow-through MAF car (1997 Kia engine) so I should retain a lot of good driveability.
Target is 200whp/200tq tuned to have a broader power band and less peak HP, and in a relatively gutted chassis. I'll follow up the build with pictures shortly.
