Default need sugesstion for turbo cams.....

Did some searching but didn't find much usefull info, so I need help. I was wondering how good or bad are N/A cam for turbo. The deal is that I want to run N/A for a little bit until I can afford my turbo setup, silver surfer it is. compression is nearly 10.5:1.

another question, is there any difference from CTR to ITR cams? which is better for NA?

Otherwise what cams do you guys most preferred?

The car is going to be a sleeper so, it's not going to be out that much. LSVTEC with forged internals.

equal length is what I have in mind. don't have any of the listed cams yet. are skunk2 pro2 better than skunk2 pro1? I've heard of some people putting the pro2s down below the type R cams but I don't know much about cams. So the way I see it is all motor cams are also good for turbo application as long as you use equal leng manifold for the turbo setup, right? is there quite a bit of difference in the CTR and ITR cams?

the only diff between the ITR an CTR cams is in the 00-01 years the CTR intake cams have 3* more duration than the ITR makin them more aggressive.

Haha, that's rich.

Last Pro2 NA car I saw made 258 whp and probably had a bit more left in it. You won't do that on factory cams, but the JDM-loving *********** will say anything to edit history so Hype-R is better than anything.

Equal length is irrelevant.


The way it always works is the people looking for NA gains now and boost later rarely build a correct NA or a correct boosted vehicle, but waste all sorts of money on **** that isn't ideal for either setup. Why not just do it once, and do it right?
