Default flat spots on JG 9006 turbo cams...?

i have a set of JG 9006 turbo cams and they have a few flat spots on them.. they arent bad, but they are there.. they are only on the intake cam on lobes 1-4-2.. what will happen if u run them in a car? just curious.. ive had them forever and i want to get rid of them.. the exhaust cam has a really really small flat spot on lobe 1.. u have to rub it to feel it..

we use to sell them alot back in the day..lately weve had a couple cars come in with jg cams,turns out the cams had flat spots on them..one integra was real bad...my advice to you is not to run them,run stock gsr cams or itr cams they work great on turbo cars...

flat spots in cam lobes will cause you to drop valves at high rpms. They should not be used
