Default Sir2 cams vs Ctr cams

I have a Jdm B16a Sir2 and I plan on going turbo eventually but for know I want a cam upgrade and was wondering if Ctr cams are better then Sir2. I have been told Sir2 cams are more aggressive then USdm Gsr cams. Right know I have an intake catback intake mani fuel reg and cam gears and soon maybe a header. If i could get turbo cams know and see some benefit that would be great. Any info would be great.

GSR's are better than B16's first and second gen. CTR's are better than all of them. But throwing them in without a tune is not going to do much.

I know a guy who made 802whp with GSR cams. In fact, the shop he owns has GSR cams in all of his turbo builds. 9.85 @ 155mph with GSR cams.
