If you are looking to save money but dont particulary care about the quality of your education (as seems to be the norm when students come from overseas) try either Cheblis Aviation in AZ or Air Desert Pacific in CA. they are both dirt cheap, but you get what you pay for...We had a few different names for ADP when I flew in the same area as they did... Air Disaster Pending Another Dead Pilot And I have yet to meet any "graduates" from Cheblis that can actually act as a competent pilot. But they're both cheap...

You get what you pay for, but if you look for decent quality, you may want to explore into "guaranteed" ratings. These schools are usually average priced, but you know exactly how much the license or rating is going to cost you. If it takes more hours of ground or flight time, the cost is the same. Airman in Oklahoma used to offer these courses, but there are a few if you look around. Others may offer a low price, but then they will keep telling you that you need more and more training to "brush you up" and get ready for the check ride, until you either spend a fortune or quit and finish elsewhere. Beware of this type of school.

There are some things in life that if you are going to do, you need to make sure you do well. Flying, especially instrument flying, is one of them. If you can't get good training, enjoy VFR flying for a while longer until you are able to pay for good instrument training.
