Default Reversing VTEC for a turbo?

Hi. Would it be a good idea to replace the cams in my h22a to maximize power with my Garett GT3071R turbocharger... I was thinking of getting custom cams, where the non-VTEC lobes would be aggressive, high overlap, high lift, and the VTEC lobes would be low overlap, high lift...

I haven't installed the turbo yet, but I figure it will spool around 4,000rpm. With this mod, I'm hoping that it will spool a bit earlier, and then with a VFAC or something, I would lower the VTEC engagement to around 4,200 rpm.

Thoughts?

it would not be beneficial... if anything save the cams for last... build the motor first... as far as reversing the vtec... dont bother
