How to read compressor maps for my upgrade??!

Hey guys. I am about to send my stock turbo ('91) off to Majestic Turbo to have them upgrade it. I have discussed three options with Kevin there. I did search forum and nobody seemed to talk about these compressor options.
-H3
-TO4E46 with a five-degree clip
-TO4E50

I am shooting for about 300hp at the crank. I cannot afford a full TO4 upgrade. So I am just looking for a little extra horsepower. Kevin believes that the TO4 E"46" would be my best route. I have included the compressor map for that compressor wheel. Can somebody tell me how to read this thing?

Does that sounds like a good upgrade? Thank you.

James

This site explains a lot of the compressor map. It has some errors, but it will give you the main idea.

Any of those would probably get to your goal, but the largest comp side you can go with is a T04B 60-1 (Turbonetics) unit.
