Many times have I seen a built motor dead 2 months later, and not because of a bad install but because of a quality part just breaking.
Will it be cheaper overall to do a built motor with a TT now, yes, you save on install cost. Will you need it in the next 3-5 years? Probably not with how you plan to drive. Also, a good investment is a boost controller which will allow you to run up boost to a nice 500whp for those fun runs and then dial it back for everyday driving.

This is a little bit misleading yes a built motor can fail , most of the time its because of not being assembled properly. A engine that is built by a good machinist and uses quality parts will not fail .
I have 10 k miles 600whp low boost on my build motor built by a local machinist that I trust.
Soon to be 700whp high boost .
