I would say you could but that is a lot of flow. If you do you should clean it every week. I have the 350 on a 38gal works good I just run carbon with it and I clean it every week.
Good to see that you do not have any fish or coral you want to take your time and let your tank set up.

I agree with Ski, if your running SPS then the flow will be fine, if not then you should turn it down. you will need to clean it on a regular basis.
