Default using crower stage 3 on a turbo setup

Is it safe to use crower stage 3 non-vtec cams on a turbo setup? I was going to go all motor but I might be going turbo because of the power I want.

it will blow all the fuel out of the exhaust, the wideband will read rich, but the engine will actually be running like dog ***.

is this a problem of the crower stage3 cam's itself? or is it a general Problem?
if it is general, NA guys may have the same problem (maybe not so worse because they don't have boost)

maybe some cam gears will help.

you can use any cams, but the question is why? is there a benefit of using the stage 3 cam over a Gsr or type R? we made 700hp last year with a crower 401-T.

this is all opposed to the info by many others thats states otherwise
do a search and you'll see what I mean...
403's (even 404) with gears, some tuning, and you'll make more power than any turbo or stock cams (apparently)

this is a problem with any NA cam generally... for hte most part anythign stage 2 or bigger has too much overlap. you can fix this somewhat with cam gears, but then you get the valve open and closing all wacky..


The Tea-father: he has an LS...

the crower turbo cams work well, if you want an upgrade thats what i would recomend.
