If I had to choose a stock frame turbo I would do the black it's almost like a t3 but stock location and makes good power on pump.The bad thing is these turbos like the red,and black like light boost and if you run past 32 psi on them your shorten the life span of them.Gl with your choice either way in the end anything is better them a stock peanut turbo.I would never go back to a stock or stock framed turbo again unless I was road racing,.

you wont reach no where near 500 on the hks turbo, but it will spool extremely quick and youll make about 40whp more then the stock 9 turbo. if you're after quick spool and around 430whp then thats a great turbo.
but based on the fact your hta green numbers were so low, expect your hks numbers to be just as low if not lower. ive done 450 on the green with 93oct on 2-3 guys now.
Their mod lists where like this: full turbo back exhaust + o2 dump, ecu boost control, bov, intake, injectors & pump, decent size cams, 3"+ fmic, lower icp.
so maybe your car wasn't tuned to its max potential if it got stuck at 360, or the fuel is not good quality? i would look into different cams also as your hks 272 are pretty mild cams.
with whatever you choose good luck. just keep in mind the turbo is not just the only key component to making power, your mods all must work together to make good power.

the evo i own now made 310 whp i forgot the tq but it was on a EXTREMELY low reading mustang dyno... i used the accessport and weighed myself in at 3200 with a 3rd gear pull and got 407 tq and 385 hp
so i think 450 its possible for the hks turbo but idk!? and i wont know til i order the damn thing haha
well if you were in my shoes and had lets say 2000$ what would you spend it on?

The 364 whp 332 wtq was from my older evo 8!

the hks turbo is exactly like a stock 9 turbo except its ball bearing and allows for about 30whp more then a 9 turbo. it spools about the same.
so if you really want 500 id say if i were you id get a black + better cams + ecu boost, so you can force more boost uptop and maintain good power.
93 + meth should give about the same result as say 98octane or slightly less. really depends on the jets and etc.
Tom my friend has it ans driven it plenty if times not knocking it but it doesn't compare to a t3 on a 2.4 the black is nuts..Also don't even try to compare mikeys car cause that setup is very unique.
I've seen numerous dump sheets with the red making over500, why is no one saying the red as an option? Is it at the very end limits of the turbo? The new green hta's can make over 500 too from what I've seen.
Is the black really needed?
Thanks

With stock block and 93 oct. I suggest a BBK-B or FP Red...both turbos will be more fun then an FP black on your setup. Or maybe look into the new ATP stock frame turbos...

I wouldn't talk crap on a fp black, because it will pull just as hard as your turbo till redline. the fp black doesn't fall on its *** or anything like you're making it out to do.
fp black is a stock frame 35r with quick spool pretty much.
ive seen 500 on a hta green a few times but with e85 or high octane fuel only.
I know what hes talking about.Had a fp black before I prefer the bigger turbos better.If you slap this black on 2.0 liter you would be better off having a t3 setup anyday..The fp black is a poormans 35 r its
still a stock framed with a Tiny 10.5 hotside with no top end what you put it against a big turbo also the boost drops off bigtime very hard to keep boost maintained ..

That's why when my Red blew up I purchased a HTA3582R. I loved the Red and thought seriously about the Black but due to cost of rebuild, wait time, and reliability chose to go T3
