The 002.2 is the usual go-to turbo camshaft. Do you mean a Precision 6062 or a different turbo ? Do you mean 800HP (crank) or wheel - the two goals are entirely different and your parts selection will need to follow suit.

A 6266/GTW3684/Xona 8264S is probably better suited to 800 WHP. Eagle Rods are Ok for 800hp but not 800whp, you'll need a better rod and upgraded wrist pins for that.

Especially in a K24 with it's more aggressive R/S ratio, top piston speed, and extra torque. An Eagle H beam likely wouldn't survive long in that build if it's pushed hard.

It’s holst hx40 60mm in , 64mm ex with 16cm turbine housing
I used TSX camshaft with my last k20 turbo
I have 06-09 and DC 004 camshaft
i want to go over 8500k that’s hard with the TSX CAMSHAFT that’s why I want to go wit 004

700whp enough for me

You'll barely make the 680-700whp on a Holset HX40, and that's pushing it to the limit.

^Thats it 700whp is pushing it.
I was sure that 6064 combo was a holset turbo.
Id say get a 63 - 64 mm billet compressor wheel for that turbo and you might get closer to your target. And probably an even bigger turbine housing for that 2400cc.

If your going holset, go for the 6767 version, with a 16cm turbine housing that will support 800whp.
On a 1.8ltr I now make 24psi by 5000rpm, with your k24 you should be able to hit the same boost at 4000rpm and allow you to rev to 9000rpm

Someone I know just did 850whp on a 2.5ltr turbo volvo engine with the same turbo at 32psi on e85

stock 06+ tsx cams can make 800-900whp. cartel 4's are pretty aggressive all motor cams and would probably perform worse than stock cams. plus aftermarket cams are known to be harder on timing chain tensioners. personally, i would use stock cams.
