get on supraforums and you can get a pump for way cheaper. mine was 80 shipped and it came out of a 23k miles car. and another 120 will net you a set of bored out 850s from the for sale section and then you can run 1300cc secondaries that drop straight back in. Ihor and Rich are usally fairly stocked up on injectors if i remember right.
so for an extra 200 bucks, you've met your goal and then some, and you can push it harder in the future if you decide.
come to the dark side....we're faster.
edit:
and wargasm's injector data is correct; i'm running a T04R at 9-10lbs right now making 300rwhp and i've never seen my injector duty cycle go over 62% with 550s/1300s

Ok, so broke out the calculator (excel) and did the calculations for what kind of turbo you need at 10psi and compared it against the 60-1 compressor map. Around 4.5k is where the fun should really start (beginning the bettter part of efficiency range). Between 6-7krpm you are seeing peak compressor efficiency. Then at 8k you are just barely leaving max efficiency range when running 10psi. So this turbo, at 10psi, will be great for max power at 10psi since it is in peak efficiency range at just the right place (depending on porting).
Now, it is my opinion you could still benefit from a smaller turbo than a 60-1. Move the peak efficiency range over to the 5k range and you will have a broader more usable power band that is less peaky. Aside from spooling faster, this might also keep you from having to upgrade your fuel system as you wont be getting as much air into the engine at the higher RPMs. Keep in mind this is all based on compressor maps which may or may not align with real life applications. And as always, it will depend on your hotside as well.
