beginner Q's for a turbo rebuild

A while ago i pulled my N/A motor out. Im looking to build a 2.3T this month to get my other 89' back on the road. what would be a good price to build one myself (basically reman'ed). Also how much am i looking at to get a turbo rebuilt. im lookin for the easiest/fastest way to just get the car out my moms garage. right now i have a engine bay with a compressor and a ps pump in it.(no tranny also). and i need it to be running buy the end of the month.
so, how much to completly rebuild a 2.3t by myself?
would it be cheaper to have a shop do it?
how much to rebuild a turbo?

thanx in advance for all your help.

You didn't get to see the odometer on the car it came from?

Pull the head and have a look...pull one of the main caps and have a look. If both look good then run it.

Check the turbo for excessive play, if it's tight and spins free then run it.
