For a turbo rated at 630 hp, I don't see it being very hard to get 400hp out of it.
He said he reached full boost by around 4K RPMS, which i guess isn't a terrible jump from my 3400 rpm spool time now, but still significant. He also said I'd be limiting myself by running the stock 2G MAF. What do you guys think?

Well I think you should look at it like this.
If 400 hp is your goal, and a 50 trims will meet that goal, do you see yourself ever going further than that?
If you think you are going to want to mod further than I would say go with the 56 trim. If you aren't, than I would say go with the 50 trim. The 50 trim in my opinion is the perfect size for a non stroker motor.
I would also like to mention that I feel the 50 trim is a much more streetable turbo than the 56 trim. I would think you would have to do a bit more tuning with the 56 compared to the 50.
But both are great choices, and would make a fine addition to your car.
