Default Low boost and N/A cam?

I've got a '99 EX with 125k on the odometer. I'm going to be boosting it in about 2 weeks with the GReddy kit at 5.5 psi and I have already installed the ZEX Street/Strip N/A cam, it's the high lift/long duration cam, with upgraded valvetrain. I had the cam before I decide to boost it.....now for the Poll...

Should I....(see poll)


Do any of you think it will hurt my engine if I leave the ZEX cam in?
