Default What to look for in cams for nitrous usage..

I have a question on what to look for in a cam that would be used with nitrous....

Less lift/duration.... what???
I currently have a d18y8 with a "50shot", it is a wet setup. I am looking to swap in a b18c. I looked at going with the skunk2 stage2 cams, 11:1, and upgrading to a direct port shot of 100-150.

If the skunk2 stage 2's are a no go, what do guys recommend?
zex cams, toda a's, jun 1's, skunk2 stage 1's... what????

Big cams should be fine for nitrous. There's no lag with nitrous so you can afford to lose a little bottom end from the cams.

At least I would think so. I always used big bumpsticks in my juiced V8s anyway.

I would NOT and I repeat NOT mix large cams and nitrous. It is a BIG no no for imports. I would say stage 1 cams at the very most. Nothing more.
