Upgrade time, but in a bit of a rush!!! HELP!

So i recently realized that i had a cracked manifold, and a loose turbo that may or may not have gotten damaged during the moving around. Seems to have been from all the track days, and my careless maintenance i over looked the manifold and turbo bolts when making sure everything was ok after tracking her.

Long story short, i decided to upgrade the whole turbo set up, go with an E85 ready fuel system set up, except the flex fuel bits which will come later.

Im stuck looking for a kit that won't make me wait 6 months to be processed and that i don't regret down the road. My first choice was the 7163 based RBX kit from CBRD, i even looked at the kits over at FullRace and Everywhere i have looked, Borg Warner turbos 7163 and 7670s are on backorder for 10 weeks!

Spoke to my local shop here (RevWorks) and they told me about a new line of Gen 2 ATP GTX turbos dropping soon, which i could do a 3576 or even a 3076...Spoke to Full-Race and they have 7064's available in twin scroll set up. I was really pumped for a v-band kit honestly :/

Im looking for some suggestions here, my main goal with the car is tracking it and daily reliability. I want the quick spooling characteristics, along with a very responsive 450 to 500 whp max. I don't mind the max (460-500) being on E85, so keep that in mind. I live in FL so 93 would be my daily pump option.

Just looking for a little suggestion from the gurus, i don't know much about turbos, and capability. Thanks for the help in advance!

AMS package with their 30r
MHI 18 with cams and corn and upgraded manifold would be a great street turbo


Personally I would get the CBRD EFR kit
