I think its possible:

Gen 4 5.3L - $600
Chang T6 88mm - $750
Chang 60mm wastegate - $50
Holley EFI HP - $1500
Bosch 210's - $300

Your at $3,200 in the powerplant, leaves a solid $2k for a nice TH400 or glide, and about $3k for a roller and incidentals.

Similar project going on with a friend, 8's for under $10k. Bought a proven 88mm turbo 5.3 setup for cheap, Th400/converter out of a 7 sec car, $500 roller, jegs wheels, holley hp efi, k member, etc all used deals.

I can't believe what the previous owner did to that poor junkyard motor... good thing about them is you can always grab another cheap.
