Default 38R on Cummins 12 valve

Anyone ever put a 38R on a cummins 12 valve as a single or twins. Would this be a good match.

Thanks

TheseThe GTP38R Turbo
A Garrett exclusive ball bearing cartridge for unbeatable response, efficiency, and durability. Elimination of the thrust bearing eliminates Failures at elevated boost levels
The 88mm GT compressor wheel provides 33% more flow than the stock 80mm wheel. Ported shroud housing improves compressor flow range for surge control
1.00 A/R turbine housing for free flowing exhaust with reduced back pressure and up to 200° F reduction in exhaust gas temperature
Maximum recommended boost level is 40psi

Only 40psi? Why bother?

Plus an 88mm wheel seems awful big, even with a ball bearing setup. I ran an HX55 on my 98 12V for quite a while. Nice turbo, and not overly laggy either. It wasn't ideal for the street, but for 2.8" classes it was ideal.
