If you build it right, that means you get the right weight, a 1404 motors with KV around 3800-3900 is more than enough. The motors have never been even warmed up with my high PIDs. For an orderly cruise flight, only a current of around 3.5A is enough for all motors!!!! Peaks are up to 30A if you can handle it. Bigger motors are just heavier and I do not think it is the benefit needed. It is about 8 g plus on motors in this case, that is about 9% of the dry quad weight.
I don't mean to say that the T-motors are bad, on the contrary, they are great, but they are useless for a light 3.5 inch. If you're closer to 220g with the battery, I'd definitely use them, if you're more like 160g, I'd stick with the 1404.
