Need Help Choosing Turbo Size!!

Ok so here is my situation, I'm definitely purchasing the ETS super value deal but i cant make up my mind on the turbo size. I am currently running ETS upper and lower intercooler piping, ETS intake pipe, ETS 3.5 intercooler, gsc 280's, fuel pump, 3inch catless exhaust forge bov, head studs and sprung 6 puck. I wanna be in the 400+ hp range and ANYWHERE in the 11's. Now comes the hard part of choosing the turbo. I would like to do this on 93 pump gas, but have all intentions on adding meth sometime down the road.


-50trim ball bearing
-pt61 ball bearing
-Garrett 35r
-GT3076R

Please everyone i need some imput and want to order ASAP

Never hear much about the 58's. Not common on our cars. I know the 57 trims surged pretty bad before an HTA and the 3076 and 3065(aka3082) already comes with anti surge covers and would outperform a 57trim all day. I am looking into an HTA3076 myself and personally have worked with a 3065 before and now they made it better. I am big on lag so the 3076 is for me. If you don't care as much about lag but don't want it as bad as a 35r then the 3065 or 3082 is the way to go.

Aparently Forced performance wants 550 to upgrade to the HTA version, from the 3076r.. (I was hoping just 450 )
