60-1 is very difficult to make 450rwhp. For $1500 you should get a Boss bolt on turbo with installation kit from Suprastore for less than $1600.

The JT series turbo's that Jeff T sells uses the same rear housing as the boss turbo's. SP also redesigned their bolt on housing for the SP61 (make a SP58 also) - I haven't read/heard much feedback on that though. I had talked with Tim about trying it, but never got around to it (bought something else instead).

There is also the trusty Greedy td06 which has made decent power (Figgie, Duane, Grant (oneandgone), are the first that come to mine - I know I'm forgetting others) on the 7m.

What ever you do, check your manifold for cracks first. Nothing like spending money on a new turbo to have your manifold leak (and sound like shit).
