Almost two months ago, I had my car dyno tuned at extreme motorsports. Long story short, I netted 296.8whp, and 282.5 ft lbs/tq @ a very weak 12psi. 
I will now list the relevant(what I believe to be relevant that is)mods before I ask my most important questions.
Non BB PTE 50 trim(int. w/g-unported)
780 cc injectors
2-yr old magencor wires(day of dyno)
'7' series NGK plugs
190 lph pump(day of dyno)
stock ecu(day of dyno)
Stock FPR(Day of dyno)
pocketlogger
DNPerformance ex. manifold
Apexi 24R I/C
Apexi 3" turbo back exhaust
Dejon Performance UICP/GM-MAFT
Dejon Performance 3" intake pipe
Ported 02 housing
HKS 264/272 cams
ARP headstuds/4-layer headgasket
New timing belt kit(w/ pump+new lifters)
Complete ## pulley set
Apexi SAFC II
Key Diver chip w/ EPROM ECU(After dyno)
255 hi press. pump(After dyno)
Aero AFPR(After dyno)
New magnecor wires
Okay, to the main part. My next dyno run, the plan is to run/tune @ 22 psi. If I can dyno what I did at a low boost with the last 4 parts out of the equation, I'm led to believe that I will be overkilling my 50 trim(if tuned perfectly). I openly admit that I don't have the advanced knowledge of turbos
, which is why I'm here
. If I indeed will be overkilling my turbo, which turbo should I go to next? Most importantly, why? If a change is needed, should I port the turbine housing for a bit of a faster spool? I prefer to stay away from a BB turbo, but I will take any good advice to heart.
Lastly, I have no current issues with the car.
Thank you and advance to anyone who can help me out here.
