GSR cams are great for turbo and supercharging. Then again, nitrous is a compliment to whatever setup you're running, so if you're otherwise all-motor, you should get some really chunky cams and valvetrain components that can handle it and keep on doing your thing.

By the way: revving higher doesn't gain you anything unless your camshafts make power that high. Wanting more revs is a ricer mentality that gains floating valves, interference and blown motors.
