Re: .42/.48 T3 question
that turbo will lose its *** at 6500 rpm, but an ls motor revs to 7,000 so you will only have about 500 rpm where the turbo starts to drop off, if it was a gs-r it would be a much bigger problem, but i gaurantee you can make mid 200's whp on 15 ish psi which is enough for low 13's and a pretty fast car, how fast the car really is will greatly depend on other things such as clutch selection, suspention set up, tire choice, and driver ability, no doubt a bigger turbo would be much better, how ever that turbo will make decent power....

a teggy LS can get around 300 hp on stock internals with a good tune. that turbo though wont even get you close to your goals. id reccomend a t3/t4 .48/.60 for those goals ,maybe a 50 trim. you can prob get away with the 450s but youd be pushing it. id rather get some 550 instead the water injection.

Re: .42/.48 T3 question
The turbo you have is ruffly good for 300hp,I am using the same turbo on my B18b 90 Integra,great little turbo,spools very fast,you could still use it just change the compressor wheel to a 50. like the t3 you get off a mustang SVO or thunderbird, they are pretty cheat on Ebay,you might even find a 60. make sure you get a matching compressor housing to or it will all be in vain.
