Default T4 or T6

Just looking for a little feedback as to what would be a better turbo setup. Im basically starting off with a stock 5.3L but will later upgrade to a low compression 408, so what would you guys recommend a t4 flange or t6 flange ?

T6 and get the base BW S475, the S475 will be more than enough turbo to turn a stock bottom end into shrapnel. Then when its time for the big FI motor throw a bigger turbo on and sell the S475 to recoupe some of the money. S475's can be had in the 650 plus shipping range from a few of the sponsors on the site. This way you are only paying for the hotpipes once, which will be cheaper in the long run then T4 and a new kit, or modding the T4 and fabbing the down pipe for the larger turbo. I already went down that exact road, only because I had the T4 turbo already.
