Default Waste gate size . Pros cons

Hi h-t I wanted to get some different insight about determing Best waste gate size based on setup, and power goals .

For example I'm currently playing around with a stock b20b no vtec, 60-1 turbonetics unit. Not sure a/r. 38mm wg also turbonetics (evo) . In house fabbed
Ram horn mani. Open dump .

Its tuned on s300 on 93 oct, @ 11 psi makes 300whp.
440cc injectors rc
Blox intake mani
4 bar map.
T1 trigger kit.

Haven't cranked up the boost yet as I've yet upgraded the injectors too 1000s.
I'll be upgrading to a sheepey ram horn manifold and my personal issue is I'm not sure if I should have Alex @ #sheepeyinc weld a 38mm 2 bolt flange on the manifold and stick with my current wg.

Or upgrade to turbosmart or tial 44 v band

What would be the pros and cons with my power goal being 550whp.
Will the turbonetics 38mm be fine ?
From my knowledge witch isn't half as much as it should be lol I think it sufficient for my power goals,

Also another option I was considering 44 v band to 38 mm 2 bolt adapter.

Any input is appreciated.

U may run into some creep issues with the 38 mm so if it was me I would at least bump up to a 44 another option would b to run twin 38s and actually that may b a better option. R u gonna b sticking with the same turbo ?
