Unhappy decision on turbo, what would you do?

I got back from this machine shop and they said that im basically fucked because of my exhaust housing. I also have enough thrust in the turbine to leak substantial boost. So much for a 300 turbo..i got ripped.

My options are above.

Does anyone know where i can get an exhuast turbine housing? Im not looking to pay an arm and a leg.

okay ...thats what im geared towards also...since the turbo isnt on the car yet..i wont have to bother with dismantling it and shipping it off and not have a car to drive for a week...I was going for a Stage 4...that'll be all the hp i'll need for a while.
