Default ls/vtec turbo w/ ITR valvetrain, how aggressive cam can I go?

Im in the process of an lsvtec on my 97ls turbo and the GSR head has ITR valvetrain but I do not know what the capabilities of the itr valvetrain is. if someone could give me a good idea of cams that it could handle that would be great.

I had found a set of jdm b16 cams $50shipped...if i want to rev out high and not worry about the valvetrain Im under the impression that would be my best and most affordable option
