im in the same boat as you. for me its either the fpgreen, hta3076, or hta35r. I run 93 too and i just have a feeling that the green wont give me enough "kick" on pump. More than likely im going to do the hta3076.

yea the hta3076 looks like a good choice so far....but if the new green could prove itself to have more gains than the old green compaired to the stock ix turbo than that might be a good choice too.

DTM's 50trim hybrid turbos are making around 410-450 whp (MD) on pump gas.

Not really. A good amount of people on here make 400whp and maybe even a little more on pump with the right mods....then meth and forget it.

I guess that I´ll be unbolting my Green yet again to send it in to Forced Performance for an HTA upgrade. I just took it off when I swapped on the 9.0 housing a few weeks ago. I´m getting way too old for this!

I am leaning toward a HTA3065. Pump gas is all I care to run.

For the kind of tune that you (OP) will be running (i.e., 23 psi / 93 octane), there will not be much of a power difference between the turbos that were originally listed. IMO, in this case the biggest deciding factor should be the quality and versatility of the turbo kit rather than the turbo. In other words, I'd make sure that whatever turbo kit you buy supports an easy upgrade path towards larger turbos. Your choice of supporting mods will have a much bigger impact on spool up and power than the three turbos you are looking at, although of the three, I'd pick the HTA3076.

Thats what i was thinking...that on pump its not going to be a big difference in power between the those turbos...the only major change would be spool up and it might not be worth the extra 10whp that a bigger turbo could make on pump only.
the hta3076 is one of my top choices right now...a little bit more expensive but i think i'll be happy with that.

but will there be a big difference in a hta3076 vs a hta35r both on pump gas and same mods? i think the 35r will catch up really quick up top once it spools
