All of my comments are based on the fact that you said pump/93 at 23PSI is what we are working with.

Question #1: Would a HTA35r have a better powerband for a stock EVO IX motor then a GT3076r?

My first question would be which turbine housing are you considering (0.63 or 0.82)? Secondly, I would check out a couple threads that have dyno graphs for both the HTA35r and the FP Red on pump gas at the PSI setting of your choice.

I'm just taking a swing at the question but I'd assume that the 76r would have a higher average whp rating than the HTA35r but the HTA35r would have more available power under the curve than the 76r. Why do I say that? We all know the 76r would spool quicker than the HTA35r at ~3.9-4.2K whereas the HTA35r around ~4.5K. I have a buddy that's reaching full boost (25PSI) at 4.8K making ~470whp. At 23PSI on pump, again I believe the 76r would be around the 420whp mark whereas the HTA35r somewhere around the 450whp mark. Again, I don't have any graphs in front of me but maybe you do so you can refine the numbers.

If your goals are a better power band on pump, the BBK Full has been making some very impressive numbers up to about 27-30PSI. There are several CBRD threads out there for you to skim through for comparison purposes.

Since you already have the 76r with the 0.63 turbine housing along with a pretty nice list of upgraded parts, why not add meth to the equation and lower the boost as that would also give you a better power band at a fraction of the cost of your listed options.

For your FP Red option, I think it would be hard to get your asking price (not to sound negative) as there are many that believe the FP Red is superior to any 30-series turbos on the market.

Now if you are totally against meth, then the HTA might be your best bet economically. The Kelford Type-C cams are pretty sweet. They might not help with spool so a nice set of HKS 272s or even a 264/272 set up might be the preferred route. I'd submit that the ported intake manifold is pretty stout for the money.

I think I've babbled enough...

(if you call, you need to leave your name, number, best time to reach you so I can contact you when we both have dedicated time to discuss your needs!!!)
