Transmission swap
Its completely possible. I did it last year about this time.
There is a sticky in the manual transmission FAQ page that has a bill of materials and walkthrough of exactly how to do it. A lot of input from us vets as well.
as for cost, look around $2k for used parts, of course more for new. I had used built trans, new clutch, new master, new slave and used everything else and came out to $3k

The deals are out there just have to be patient
I would recommend putting a nice stall and shift kit instead. Heck with that money you can even cam it. I did an a4 to m6 swap earlier this year and I regret getting rid of my yank 3600. I could of done heads and cam instead and been a lot happier. Theres nothing like the pull of a stalled auto.
I picked up a t56 for no kidding a 100 buck needed new shift fork and i put new synchros in , parts from members here did all the work myself i dont think i have 600 in the entire swap . and i love it over the auto ! here is a link that can help with the converstion
