Default Ball Bearing and Non Ball Bearing Questions

I know that someone posted a thread related to this ball bearing topics but I'd like to know everyones opinion.

I'm deciding to wether it's a wise decision to Turbocharge my stock prelude h22 motor with a GT35RBall Bearing Turbocharger? I know it's a expensive turbo (very expensive) but if you want to stay with the big dogg than you can't spare anything on it, right?. Do you think the GT35R BB is too big for the stock h22a? as in too powerful for it? Will the motor handle it at stock spring 7lb psi including tunning?, daily driven?, durability?

Thank you for your informations.

Default Ball Bearing and Non Ball Bearing Questions II

Through your experience, what's the difference or does it make it difference comparing the power of a 300 horsepower Ball Bearing Turbocharge motor To a 300 horsepower Non Ball Bearing Turbocharge motor??? Would the Ball Bearing Turbo motor have more advantage over the non Ball Bearing? Or it's about the same?

There is no reason to get that turbo and only run 7 psi. On other words, I just bought a GT40 turbo from Rod at Precision Turbos with just regular journal bearing. I cant wait to try it over the T4 60-1 i was using last year. The actual size of the turbo is similar, but the wheel is huge.
