Don't laugh, but I have a buddy using a 915 in his VERY HOT 3 liter turbo. It is strong and holds the power, but more importantly (he says), transformed the car from one that bored him to death (4-speed), to the love of his life (5-speed). Don't underestimate the power of gears. I think his car is more fun and feels faster w/ a 5-speed and 350ish HP than a 450HP+ monster w/ a 4 speed. The five speed work great at that power, but would probably grenade under 450HP - it's all trade offs.
That said, a Garrett GT30 with the right trim and A/R should spool like crazy and allow over 400HP. Just watch your surge lines on the compressor maps, as your 3.4 is going to pump a LOT of volume for a housing that small. A GT35r does make full boost at 2800 RPM on a 3.3, so I'd triangulate between the 30 and 35 for a very "N/A" feel to your car.
