Upgrading turbo for E85

So I have a Tomei Arms M7960 that needs to be rebuilt but I am thinking of just upgrading and getting another turbo. What turbo do you guys recommend that's cheap but good for an Evo 8 that can yield me 450-500 WHP on E85? Under 1k?

Sorry for the late post.

I also have a Kinugawa 25g turbo. I have the 3.25" anti-surge compressor housing with a 60-1 billet wheel and 10.5 hotside. I am running wastegate pressure,which is 25psi, and I am on a small fuel set up (1050cc's and a 255lph pump). I made 461awhp and 372lb tq.

It spools at 4200 and PULLS all the way to 7800

Hope you see this jay.....hint hint.
