Will I run into compressor surge?

Will I run into compressor surge?
I'm running a 1/2 BP'd S5 TII block with and E6X......
I'm planning on reaching approx. 400whp on pump. No aux. injection. I believe its all the fuel system will handle (750cc P.....1000cc S)
Now, I have another T04-S on order from ATP but.........its backordered indefiently
Here's where I get to the surge question. I can get a T04-R sooner, but we're talking a difference of 61lbs flow vs. 74lbs/min. Will running the T04-R even make sense? I have a feeling that at my power goal the turbo won't even be in its effciency range yet.......or am I wrong?
I searched and found numerous people running the S in and around my power goals so I think I'll just wait it out and stick with the tried and true. But will having the R cause any problems with surge? Will it even be running in its effciency range at that power level?
I don't plan on ever going past that power level, but if 450+ is only a pair of 1600's away I might get tempted.
So - Will the R be too much for my goals? Or will it work?
edit: Almost forgot.......for either turbo I was going to run a divided 1.00 A/R.....

Running a T04R is beter suited for a half bridge then the T04S is. And NO, you wont ever get that turbo into surge. Theres some HUGE turbo's being run on 13b's, none that I know of get into surge (except throttle closing surge). Rotaries have quite thurst for air and fuel.
