A 60-1 hi-fi from Turbonetics with an HKS cast manifold and standard wastegate would be a good choice for the street. THat should be able to fulfill your needs at around 17 PSI, from what I've heard. Even a TO4 would be a good choice. InitialDFC has some TO4's for sale that would do what you want.

I'm running the same manifold and wastegate with a Greddy T-78. The only problem is that the exhaust housing is divided and the manifold isn't. I'll be changing my manifold this winter. The turbo makes alot of power, but it has more lag than most people would want for the street.
