Just snag a used holset. Have it rebuild for insurance, if you want. And get a t3 BEP turbine housing. You can get rebuildable cores from here for next to nothing. Try to avoid cores with bad wheels. The wheels are fairly expensive. This guy is someone I trust and use and can rebuild them for a very good price. He has great reviews has been doing it for years and has a great reputation. Or you can take to a shop you know. Or you can do it yourself. Or you can get a core that doesn't need a rebuild. They're out there on ebay and GREAT deals can be found on forum classifieds like Dieseltruckresource.com.
EDIT: If you want new you can contact HT Turbo. They had the 68lb/min hx40 for sale for $825. You can sell the turbine housing and make the money to buy the t3 bep housing.
