goal is around 300whp but the bottom end will be good for 500 and will have 800cc injectors. stock valve train so i wont be revving super high.

Need turbo specs. Ball bearing, back housing size ex: (.63 , .82)? A .63 back housing will work but you will not have a decent powerband for your setup. If you can't rev to at least 8-8.5k your power band will be narrow. 300whp is low for this turbo. You probably would not enjoy driving around with that turbo. T3/T4 (50 trim, 57 trim, and 60) would be ideal. These guys on here Go-Autoworks.com are using a bullseye turbo that looks very nice. I am going to run that same turbo on my D15 or 16. I will say no to the gt35 especially if it is used. Go T3/T4 frame up to 60 trim, GT30R the biggest.

Ill be using a GT35 on my single but its a track car. From the sounds of it get something different especially if its a street car. Custom spec BW would do you well or even a BW 50trim.......
