Default Turbo size question..

I have a d16y7 motor that I am building to support about 300hp or so.. I currently have a Garrett/Airesearch T3 .48/.42..

I want to upgrade my turbo to support the airflow of 300hp on my rebuilt motor.. What compressor section should I upgrade to.. I have heard from a shop that upgrading to a t3/t40e would be best but what trim do I run.. Any help.. Thanks

Modifying that turbo is a waste of time IMO. What compresor wheel do you have?

A T3/T4 50 trim would be a nice turbo for that power goal.
