A Garrett GT30R would be great for what you want, but is a good bit outside of your price range. An STC Silver Surfer would probably do nicely for what you want, and is listed for $899 on their website, if you're willing to up your budget just a hair. Remember, you get what you pay for.

It's a hair on the big side for your goals, but not horribly big. It's price tag is way too big for your current budget, though. I'd bet the Silver Surfer would probably be a better match for you, though (and a little cheaper, too).

If you want more responsiveness get the Hunter from STC. It's 53 lbs/min, capable of 460 whp and is $865.
