Default Which turbo to choose?

This is for my upcoming stock engine build. It is going on a 64k mile GSR with nothing but ARP studs. In the 2008 season i do plan to build the engine so i need a turbo that has potential to make 400whp and still have good spool when making less (300-330whp on stock). My choices are also bound by my budget right now too. Thanks for the help!

thanks for the votes so far...i agree that the BW S256 is the best turbo for my setup, but damn those are spendy!!

well due to financial circumstances right now, i'm going to have to run the 60-1 but for next season, i'm going w/ the S258....thanks for the votes and opinions everyone, but in the end it really came down to the fact that i dont have a lot of money this year thanks to school....
