Message are realistic, maybe even conservative. Check out my costs above. You'll see there are numerous line items you'll be able to avoid.

My only consideration is the current configuration of your present car has a lot more intrinsic value, as opposed to an NA; and you'll be losing more equity by swapping a TT as opposed to an NA. Also you'll piss off more people by gutting a TT than a beat up NA. But if you want a fun project with some challenges; but one that has been done by dozens of others and has a fairly deep knowledge base; then go for it. LOJ is the best place for basic info and IMO the best source of kit parts.

Check out these FB pages to start. Be forewarned because mixed in between some solid enthusiasts there are some real boneheads who are butchering their projects by taking short cuts trying to save money:
