I would go with something bigger than a 50-trim, if you really want 450whp on pump gas. Dre did it, but unless you plan on spending 6-months tuning your standalone everyday for hours and blowing numerous headgaskets then just get a little bigger turbo like a 60-1 and make it easy for yourself. The 2.4l with spool a 60-1 non-bb no problems. You can save the BB money for a built tranny, sheetmetal intake, standalone fuel management, FMIC, 720+cc injectors, cams, engine internals, and the hundred other things needed to finish a major build up.
A 450whp car is handful though. Going right from a 200whp modded T25 car to 450+whp car is an easy way to get yourself killed. Nash ran his 11.2 making around 425whp. And be ready for some downtime once in a while as random parts start taking turns breaking.
Your probably not going to be street racing everything you come across as much either. You will have to worry about weither or not its worth possibly breaking something, getting someone killed, or getting the car you just spent $$$ on getting impounded by the cops. Going from a T25 that does 0-60 in about 6.x seconds to a car that can do it somewhere in the mid 3s on street tires you might find racing the Hondas and Cavaliers at the normal summer street racing spots a waste of time and a bit dangerous.
