Default CTR cams on GSR Turbo

will ctr cams make good power on a gsr turbo set up? I hear that stock gsr cams work really well with turbo. I have a pair of ctr cams that i am most likely gonna put on a gsr motor when I buy one, but i plan on going turbo in the future. Should I keep the stock cams in?

I run a CTR intake cam, b16a exhaust cam.
no dyno yet, but there is an incredible jump in power when vtec engages
as compared to before.

Got any more info? I'm trying to decide whether to get GSR, ITR or CTR cams for my B16A1. Its gonna be NA now and I'd like a little extra power. But my main concern is having something in there that will work with a turbo when I add it next summer.

acutally we had a very similar result. the same setup with CTR cams made 330 WHP ( gunmetal_tegra) he blew an oil pump and changed the bearings and oil pump to a new one. in addition put on a Ported CTR head with stock GSR cams * CTR/ITR cams got messed up from oil starvation* and went to retune and only made 303 WHP

however he did notice that low/midrange before vtec was torquier. might have been in his head but quite possible.
