I would think they would be more of a hindrance than an advantage.

If you have a high revving turbo and a BUILT block, you could probably lay down some serious power. But the extreme lift/duration specs of the B's would be kind of counterproductive, I would believe. Of course I know nothing about turbos.

I would think the spec b's would have too much overlap for a turbo street motor.

ditto..I heard u'll kill ur motor.
U can try Spoon, Spec A's, ITR's, CTR's, Top Fuel as these arent high lift cams...
They will garner much horespower compared to stock GSR cams...
