Default \\ IS IT OK TO USE BLOX TYPE A CAMS IN A TURBO CAR //

Like the title states.Right now i have blox type A camshafts.i was gonna sell them and just use my gsr cams.Question is it safe to use these cams on a turbo motor pushing 500 hp.Or you think its better to use ITR/CTR cams instead or stick with the gsr cams i have in now.

aggressive na cams actually perform better than turbo cams.
some popular turbo cams are just copies of na profiles.
but all you do is dial out the overlap and our motors love it

I swear those GSR cams are a joke. I have a pair I cant seem to get them to perform better than my scank2 stage 1, or my boy's crower turbo cams . its a hype the blox will definately be better than any NA cams.
