should I upgrade from my 20g 6 blade?

I have a 20g 6 blade turbo that came on my evo 8 when I bought it and I was wonder if it would be worth it to upgrade. I have been looking at the new fp green hta. My other mods are mail in flash,buschur tbe, buschur intake, synapse bov, forge mbc, ams licp, muse uicp, gsc s1 cams, walbro 255 and pte 680 injectors, currently @ 24psi and I run on 93 pump gas. What kind of gains could I expect with the hta green?

That would be a great turbo, what are you expecting to do with your car in the long run? I like the FP Red as a street sleeper/occasional drag strip run here and there kinda venture, but that's me, good luck.

I do drive the car on the street quite a bit. Not quite a daily driver but not just a weekend cruiser either and I like to hit the drag strips now and then. I plan on just running pump gas but would like to hit 400whp+

I was also told about the hks 7460 set up. Any opinions on which is an overall better turbo to go with? Im talking about the newer fp green hta or hks 7460

There has been extensive discussion on the 7460R (for example here https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...-iveytune.html)

Looks to be comparable in power gains to the HTA Green (~40-50 whp), but with a quicker spool and the assumed durability of being a ball bearing turbo.
