Default converting dry to DP

How Expensive is it to convert a dry system (MAF) system into a DP system. The reason i ask is that i eventually want to go w/ a DP setup, but not until i have a forged shortblock. How much money would i be wasting if i went with a dry system now and converted to a DP kit later. It seems that the lines would be run, and the bottle/saftey features (window switch, WOT switch, bottle heater, ext.) would be transferable. Seems like i could sell the nitrous plate when the time came and i wouldn't be too bad off. Any opinions???

just need to get the knozzles and lines...removing and plumbing the intake. if your going wet, fuel solenoids and possibly another nitrous noid if you wanna run a split set up (1 Nos, 1 fuel per side). and make sure the fuel system is up to the task...ie: injectors, pumps etc. a stand alone set up would probably be a good idea aswell. all in all cost wise you could be lookin at a few hundred bucks depending on what you decide to do. hope this helps..goodluck
