Turbo guru's,help me understand a compressor map
 
I am turbocharging my 88 escort and have 2 turbo's to choose from.I am running a 1.9L with a 3" FMIC and a standalone computer.I have the maps from the 2 turbo's but what are they telling me?Both are turbonetics and both are t3/t4's with a A/R of .63
#1 is a stage III wet float bearing,here is the map:

#2 is a 50 trim ceramic ball bearing unit,here is the map:

The engine will have a max rpm around 6,500 and has forged internals.I realize that this engine will not make unlimited HP.
When can i expect full boost with these 2 turbo's?

you need to figure out what kinda airflow you need for certain hp level, and the pressure ratio. there are all kinds of calculators for guestimating these values

So i would have to figure out the VE of this?Am i going too deep here or do i shoot for a HP?I would like to see around 350 but when i look at the 50 trim HP rating it is way above that.Will it spool late?I think i am shooting for a reasonable # considering the engine work but do not want to put too big of a turbo on and hurt the build.Thanks for input,
Mark
