Cams for my turbo?
Alright guys as i piece my turbo together i wondered i currently have Skunk 2 stage 2 race cams from my N/A setup which i will be getting rid of cause i know that they would not suit a Turbo setup. Now my question is i have my stock B16 cams still and thinking i should use those. I hear that using GS-R cams would be better?.
Not sure, what do you guys think?
Thanks

The overlap in the cam profile for vtec hinders performance on turbocharged applications, however this overlap is needed for vtec. NA cams will be much more aggresive of course, and will utilize vtec. I think you can take it from there...

gsr cams have no overlap they work great on a turbo.
