You won't find 20vt's lying around anywhere, they are highly sought after.
They can be found around places like Motorgeek forums, Audifans classifieds, or on autotrader from the right vehicle:
- 1991 Audi 200, quattro w/ manual tranny
or UrS4, UrS6 models. -All of which are becoming increasingly rare.
034EFI has developed a kit to turbo the N/A 20v, that might be the easiest way.
It's an expensive endeavor.

or if your REALLY smart
buy a 10vt and mount your stock 20v head to it. A bit more involved I think but 3Bs and AAN motors are lots of $$$. I've heard its been done before and what I'm starting to research for my own car.

true,
034 EFI has much info on that, several people doing the same project, but it's my opinion that peoples progress has been a little slow. -I could be wrong about that though.
-It's an NG 10vt block + 20v head, but you still need the proper intake/exhaust manifolds + throttle body etc. You have to be pretty motivated for this one, as well as creative to work it out. Jim Greens is a 7A conversion(IINM).
My long block AAN was $2700, with 89k miles and included the ECU and full uncut harness, all accessories and the intercooler + crossover pipe.
I thought it was a good deal, especially since I didn't have to ship it.
I also recently bought a (necessary) S2 downpipe for $240 shipped and expect to spend another $1000 or so on parts just to get it going.
* Heater Core (might as well while the dash is out)
* Head gasket / Upper / Lower gasket set
* TB/WP/Idle Pulley/thermostat
* Head Bolts
* Crank Rod hardware
* Intercooler / tubing etc (AAN IC won't suffice)
* Tank/Flux (this weekend hopefully)
-I hear this continuous cha-ching sound when I dream...
hopefully after that I can start with the real goodies.
