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.

kelford 272's GSC S2's or Cosworth M3's don't bother with HKS 272 or M2's

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.

coming from a proud owner of kelford 272s. their freaking awesome... spool up on my 35r is pretty good, and my tyno sheet showed me still climbing at 7.6k RPMs... now i just need springs and retainers so i can rev up higher!!!!

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.

i ran the cosworth 272's on my car... were nice and agressive, without taking the street driving away
2008 evo9 
my firsy turbo will be hks 3037 if i ll get bored of that change with hks3240 closer to 35r i thing .
do i need to port polish head too?because there arent any talented guys araund here to do it . if you say send it to ams or tomei it would be so hard because of shipping and custom problems .
wainting for opinion
