Before you start working on the head, you should build the block first. As for the cam, i use the stock cam and im satisfied.

Leave the stock cam in there and get a nice headgasket and some arp headstuds. SOHC d16's are notorious for headlifitng under boost.

Dont mean to thread jack but this is probably useful info.
I got a pretty racey cam in my car right now Advertised Duration of 272 for intake and exhaust and 425 lift. What makes a cam not a turbo cam? I plan on keepin this cam when i boost.

Steer clear of the FMU and look into something like turboedit or zdyne.
