Default Turbo+type R cams good idea?

I have a set of type R cams and a set of gsr's wich ones are more relyable with turbo. I know type R cams make more power, I will be runing around 15psi, don't know if the overlap is too much, some help guys.

Definitely, according to the butt dyno, I gained a ton of power over my GSR cams The Type Rs do have overlap, but they dont have as much the faster the engine turns, and a set of cam gears will let them make far more power than the B16 or GSRs.

I have B18C-R 98spec cams in my teg with AEM trutime cam gears. It has yet to be tuned on a dyno, but from what I just read above.. I guess I should be expecting some good results

I have an ITR intake cam on my GS-R at 6.5 psi I made 256WHP

so if you know what average GS-R made at 6.5psi, then you can find out how much more power it can make
