general question on swapping compressor to turn T04E into SC6152E

Hey guys,

I have kind of a general turbo question for you. I have a Precision T3/T04E 60 trim with a 0.63 ar on the hot side. I was thinking about swapping out the compressor wheel and maybe even the housing and replacing them with a GT35R (3582R) and basically making it into an SC6152E. The only difference between the new turbo setup and and actual SC6152E is that mine will still have the turbine side out of the T3/T04E setup. I believe my current turbo is either a SC4431E or a SC4427E

Now my main concern is whether or not my current turbine fan/shaft will work with the GT35R compressor wheel. I had two setups in mind:

Setup #1
-get a GT35R compressor wheel (82mm exducer/61.4mm inducer)
-keep my current T04E housing and have it machined out to accept new fan
-have the inner part of the compressor backplate machined out to accept the new 82mm wheel
-now with setup will my current turbine fan/shaft work with the new GT35R wheel? also will I be able to have my comp housing and backplate machined out to accept the new GT35R wheel? if not I'll have to go with setup #2

Setup #2
-get a GT35R compressor wheel (82mm exducer/61.4mm inducer)
-get a 0.70 a/r comp housing
-get a GT35R comp backplate (is it a GT35R or a T04S backplate? or are they the same thing?)
with setup I'd still need to know if my current turbine shaft will work. I'm also sure the T04E backplate is smaller then the T04S or GT35R backplate right?

So what do you guys think?
TIA
