Need help choosing a turbo kit for my IX

hey guys I feed some feedback on choosing the best turbo kit for my 06' evolution IX
here are my current mods:-

Mishimoto Radiator
Walbro 255 Fuel Pump
880cc Injectors
Megan Turbo Manifold
Perrin 3" Downpipe
Perrin Cat Replacement Pipe
ACT Streetlite Flywheel
ACT HD Clutch Kit
K&N Typhoon Short Ram Intake
Titek O2 Housing
Autobahn 88 Front Mount Intercooler Kit
AEM Water Injection Kit
AEM EMS Ecu (Air Temp & 3.5 Bar Map Sensor)
AEM Wideband UEGO Gauge
HKS EVC 6
HKS 280in 272ex Mivec Camshafts
HKS Super Sequential BOV

The car was tuned and feels great @26psi but the turbo squeals pretty loud so i think its time to upgrade, So can you guy point me in the right direction.

Please bare in mind this car is a street car and not track.
Thanks

depends on what your goal is the FP Red is a really good option and even better combined with E-85, HTA FP Green won't make as much but it also won't be laggy and it's a really nice street turbo.

Buy an FP Red and be done with it. If you want to make more than 450-500 on the street buy a hta 35r. Those are the only two options I'd go with currently.

For the money I'd go with the red. Less work on your end to replace it and makes pretty good results.

I think it's still very important to know what kind of power he's trying to make. Are you trying to do it on pump gas? Race gas? E-85?

There are things that we would need to know before anyone should recommend anything.

I'll suggest the BBK Full or BBK-XL, though I don't have first hand experience with either..

If you want 550whp on pump gas then yea, you might have to look into a bigger turbo like a twin scroll 35r or even larger. Are you doing this for drag or for the street? Sometimes it's not about peak hp, but the useable powerband for the street. Some like the BBK with great spool and large powerband would be great for the street.
