depends on the manifold u are going to use. if you are using a log manifold use a cam with a short duration if you are going to use equal length then do an all motor cams. if know your set up and wat you are going to use then you can 100% of the time find a cam thats gonna work better than a stock one just my 2 cents

It has been proven many of times that a stock type r cam will make just as much if not more than any aftermarket turbo cam.

i would say any exh. cam with a high lift should be good. you just need to get the spent gases out. any mild int will work type r would be fine.
