    Need help selecting New turbo for my setup

    ok ive got a dilema
    Looking to upgrade my turbo after i change my current setup.

    Current setup is
    GT3071 w/ 0.63 rear
    Wagner reverse intake and intercooler
    Wagner evo exhaust manifold with Kflange
    1600cc injectors and 044 intank pump
    TFSI coil conversion
    EMS standalone ecu
    E85 fuel
    Eboost controller
    7a cams

    This setup achieved 307kw atw on 28 psi.
    Peak boost comes on at about 3700-3800 which is great for the street.
    But i want to run more boost up to 35psi

    So i am currently gathering up parts to redo the bottom end and service the head with uprated springs, retainers, seals, guides and stronger valves.
    Ive also purchased a set of 267 degree cams from 034

    Now the dilema i have with the turbos is that i want to change over to the GTX style billet turbos. Because of my current turbo making good power i figured going to the gtx3071 would be no brainer cause it has and increase flow of 10-15% and can be used With my exisiting 0.63 exhaust housing
    But i figure that i could go to the GTX3076 cause that can also be used with the same rear but with the added benefit of slightly more power as a side affect.
    Only thing im concerned with is that it will obviously be slightly slower to spool but wondering if it would be that bad with the 0.63 rear or if it would just be choked by it.

    Then maybe im better off with the gtx3071 at 35psi

    worst case scenario i could look to just completely change my exhaust manifold also to a T3 type and then i would be more flexible. but cost me a hell of a lot more

    If i do that i could then also look at a GTX3582 with 0.82 rear becuase i could increase timing for more low down response and coupled with E85 fuel could bring spool down to maybe as low as 4200rpm... that wouldnt be too bad for the street i think..
