Default Turbo 1st gen B16 should I use CTR cams?

I have a stock 1st gen b16 in my hatch with a turbo kit and I have a set of CTR cams that are in my LSVtec that is sitting in the garage right now, I am questioning if I should use the cams considering that the 1st gen B16 cams are horrible. Anyone have any thoughts, I also have an ITR intake mani that I'm thinking about using as well. What do you guys think.

I personally wouldn't use those for turbo, They are pretty wild cams for NA from the factory. your ET would probably suffer from those cams. Everyone says GS-R cams are better for turbo, I don't disagree.

is it because of overlap and a possible loss of boost because of such a high lift?
