Default RC 440s or 550s?

I'm torn between both. 6-8psi to start. I might plan on more boost later but maybe not. TIA

Setup:
B20B auto
3K03(VW1.8t)
SAFC2
ITC
Skunk2 IM
66mm TB
2.5" DP
Saab Viggen FMIC 24x6x2.25
Autometer Boost, EGT, Oil Pres, Tranny Temp gauges

How much power do you plan on running? If you plan on pushing it further I would suggest the 550 cc.. anything above that prices get a little crazy for RC's.

550s
Dont limit yourself and the cost difference is minimal.

550 for a B20, you'll want to boost more, don't limit yourself.
