sooo if you have a evo 9 (2006) i would go with the cosworth 272 mivec cams... IMO they get more power then the HKS

if u have a 2008... well ur guess is as good as mine...

Does that turbo have a 76mm inducer, or exducer? A general rule of thumb, the larger the turbo the larger the cams.

It all depends on what turbo you're running or plan on running. Some listed above might be too aggressive for a stock turbo. The BC valve springs/retainers are great for the price! I run them myself.

That's the thing, they are great cams for larger turbos such as the 35r or equivalent. I wouldn't put them on a stock 9 turbo set up.
