$18+k? for a **26b**!.. No disrespect to you, but you must be thinking of fab’ing and working on every bit of the build…  
In reality it would be $30+k (+ 2-3k) for a **20b** install into an 93+FD, if your not doing the work yourself. I know because I have priced them out for a previous ride…☹  
If you can quote me a 26b swap into a '93 FD for ($18k +/- $5k) i will look to buy one now(FD) and be the first one to your shop with cash in hand. (as long as you would guarantee your work with warranty)

It’s hard to offer 50-80K miles warrenty when you know that 50% of all turbos will be done by then… cost / return is not there.
