The GSR and B16 (2nd gen, dont know if 1st gen B16's are diff) exhaust cams have the same specs, so just change your intake cam.

what about a ITR intake cam? overlap! also ther should be more intake cams lying around considering all the NA heads only buy the exhaust side.

personally i think they are too high on compression for a turbo setup...cant run very much boost on that from what i gather

i thought itr cams were high duration which is good for the intake side to create overlap. overlap = scavenge effect = happy turbo ... any mechanical engineers correct me.
