Default buddy club spec III cams on turbo?

ive done some research on this and came up with one thread with no results.
im wondering if i installed my bcIII cams on a fully pnp head and about 10-15psi will then perform or hinder.. i also have some b16 cams but i dont have the resources to tune both and compare. has anyone tried boosing on these cams and what were your gains or losses.
thanks guys

Naturally aspirated cams are not designed for boost. They will work, but you won't make as much power as a cam ground for boost.

I can't seem to find the specs but I think you would be better off using the stock cams. If I knew the overlap specs for both I might be better able to tell you.

there a little less lift than itr and more duration, i figure there a very mild street cam for between 10:1 and up compression. so if i boost at 10:1 shouldnt i have the best of both?

duration is what you don't want on turbo cams, it will lead to too much overlap and air will just fly out of exhaust. You want more lift about the same as stock duration and overlap.
