that's a big *** turbo and you will run out of bottom end before you run out of ability to make hp.
i don't see any reason for cams in this case

Re: ..which cams/cam gears to use? b18b1.
stock cams will make good power, no need to change them BUT if you want to change them you will need vlave spring upgrade, IMO valve spring upgrade is needed with that turbo anyhow because 7k rpm isnt going to cut it for a 35r.
I loved my JG303's great cam and ran all the way to 8500rpm. the crower 404s will do the about the same. The bisi cams have been proven to work well along with crane and crower turbo cams but you would get as much rpm out of those as an all motor cam. dont go any bigger than ther 404's as drivability will go right out the window. Degree the cams as well to rid of as much overlap as you can for better power production and spool

on your comment. That was rude. The dude gave you good advice. Other parts will fail before you can even benefit from an aftermarket cam. Stick with stock or bump to GSR. The GSR cams will easily take you to more HP than the bottom end will support.

definately. i was also thinking about useing the crower 404's aswell..
...my other choice was to leave the head completely stock, and just do rods/pistons etc..
