Default Turbo compressor outlet size question.

Hey guys, I would like to deal with an issue beforehand as I wouldnt want it to become a problem.

I have 2.5" intercooler piping and I am purchasing a BW s366 (T3, ETT version). I was wondering if getting the 2.75" Compressor Housing outlet option would cause compressor surge at high boost levels since the rest of my piping is smaller.

Or would there be any other issues? My goal is 730ish whp.

a 1/4" sounds hefty, but when you look at it like only 1/8" on either side, i dont think you'll have an issue. and in reality whats the id of the discharge?
