Default Going turbo but still want headwork, what cams to get?

I wanna build my head still but I do plan on going turbo, what kind of setup should I run? I know i need stiffer valve springs and good valves and retainers, but what kind of cam should I get? JUN 3s too extreme for turbo setup? Should I just stick with some CTR cams? What do you guys think? Please help me out, thanks.

I hear that GSR or ITR/CTR cams are great for a turbo setup. My GSR cams have been just fine.

I think that the only thing you would want to watch out for with a turbo setup would be to keep cam overlap to a minimum.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Crower makes cams for forced induction apps. I'd check them out. Even the type R cams are a little too radical to make the best power on the hot cam.
