Help Picking out good turbo cams.
Ok im planning on turbo my gsr build that im putting together, well anywho i need help finding good, cheap, reliable camshafts.. Im having problems figuring out the lift/duration and what to look for, I plan on using 91 pump gas and I want around 350-400 hp. I have a port and polished gsr head with crower valves springs and retainers so I could just about use any cams. And i plan on using flat supertech valves, so if anyone has any good info or input please do help
Thanks in advance.!!!

I made 585whp/385tq 21-23psi with GSR Cams..... ITR Cams will give you a 35-50whp boost over GSR's though or you can just make the same power with less boost.
Use a good straight through 3" Exhaust.

Re: Help Picking out good turbo cams.
for your power goals any oem cam would work and that skunk2 exhaust would work also (ive seen 450+ on 2.5")
