Default Is A T62-1 too much for a stock gsr motor?

I have a turbonetics ball-bearing t62-1 turbo that im going to be using for my current setup. I have a few questions and was wondering if anyone can help or have any suggestions.

-Is the turbo too big to be a good DD?
-Will 550s make 300whp+ on a stock gsr motor?
-WIll an exedy organic hold up?
-I really dont want to open up my motor, will the stock head bolts hold?

I will be running this turbo on a stock gsr motor and its my Daily driver. I really want a 57 trim t3/t04e, but thats not in my budget right now. Will be tuned with crome and im planning on taking it to Parris Engine Dynamics in Stockton, CA to tune.

SO again, any suggestions/recommendations will be greatly appreciated!

Yeah I read your post! Awesome man. Sucks we dont have an e85 station anywhere near where I live. Though there is a VP gas station 5 minutes away with 100 octane gas. Do you recommend using that to tune?! I have a cheap XS power manifold, but Im trying to get my hands on a fairly priced Log manifold right now. I really want a ram horn, but the HQ ones are so pricey!!

I recommend what ever your local tuner says to use since he isn the one familiar with the capabilities of the fuels you have in your area, and there safety.

pfab seems to be great for me so far,and the inline pro ones as well like Jeff Evans uses.

Hopefully once my head gets done(replacing stem seals, putting in dual VS, Ti Retainers), the kit can go in and get tuned! I really want to make atleast 320whp since alot of the guys here that are boosted are around there. ****, there are even a few 500+ cars rolling around town.

haha. I love going to the track. Only been there twice to run my car. Not the fastest thing out there, but i like the feel of doing a burnout, staging up, and concetrating on the lights while keeping your eye on the rpms trying ro get a good launch. Best feeling ever, and I like it alot more than street racing. Others feel differently about that, but i think its just more fun. BTW, no not burning out on street tires, haha
