Default B16A2 cams upgrade setting

Hi, I have a eg6 with a b16a2 engine, recently y bought b16b camshaft and I put them on. The problem is that when I run my cams setted up "0" degrees I/E my car is slower that what it was, it gets better when I set the cams to In + 3(advance) and Ex -1(retard). I know the b16a and b16b have different vtec lobe specs (duration and angle) but I can't find the same information from the primary lobe so I can use that to set my cams correctly, do you guys have this information? Or any idea how this cams should be setted up? Thank you

Have you had the car tuned for the new camshafts? If not, that is likely why you are lacking power. They will have a completely different fuel map needed.

I have a p30 Ecu chipped for the cams and other bolt-ons that I have. But my doubts comes from the proper cam set up, because I've seen b16a2 oem cam have a 111deg center angle and b16b has a 101deg center angle, and for the exhaust b16a2 has a 101deg center angle and b16b has a 103.5deg angle. With this information how can I get the proper cams setup?
