The info supports most of what is being posted here.
Getting close to summarizing this thread with budgets, build options and builders/suppliers.
I'd like to see a wild card option: SOHC heads on a 2.5T block if thats even possible.
Why? Simply to trade complexity for simplicity and reliability.
The idea comes from the Outfront build options list.
Shoot it down or talk it up.
A little more detail here

Expensive and overkill unless you want to run biiiiiig boost. Budget on around 1200 for each. I think with the improvements in tuning over the years the need for for all this fancy gear in a mild build is dwindling.
Dollar for dollar (IMHO here) one of those Rising sun bottom ends with the CP's and whatever rods will do the trick. Get some custom aged head studs as per Mick's set up (not 14mm as per mine). Set it up with a a bolt on turbo like a blouch unit and a good tune with 22ish psi and a rev limit below 7500 rpm and away you go. It would make what it makes, have a wide torque band and be a reliable thing.
