Default toda cams on turbo cra?!?

was reading through my old magazines when i was taking a dump (yuck), and I realized that the signal's chop-top 2 hatch is using b16b motor w/ TODA SPEC B's and still able to produce 600 and change whp?!? now my question is..I thought spec b's are idea for n/a and not turbo? why they're using it?!?

well, it's a race car, so i'm sure they've done tons of tuning to get the over lap out. i would guess the cams are separated quite a bit to get rid of the higher rpm overlap, that probably separated the low rpm lobes a lot too and made it tough for them to make the car idle well.

cam overlap spools the turbo faster...

this is exactly what im always trying to get at... i know someone that used spec b's and got over 600 as well... but yet there are still better cams out there that will produce more power, and im not talking about itr/ctr cams, crower "turbo grinds" etc...

Most likely he was running only on the non-vtec lobe.
