Question TSP Torquer v2 with Turbo work?

Texas Speed Torquer 2 232/234 .595/.598 112LSA Camshaft
6.0l Exhaust Manifolds.

Thats what I'm going to use "MAYBE" on my setup. Want to get some opinions 1st. I have seen turbo guys run big cams with turbos and also hear alot of people say go small with bigger LSA(114-118)

What do you turbo guys think?

My car made good power with that cam. Numbers in sig. I will definitely be changing it when I get home though.

did you notice much bleed off of boost on high rpm's?
and what LSA were you the 114 or 112?

I have that cam, but I am N/A. also mine is on a 113lsa. I love that cam, awesome throttle response and makes killer torque with great top end power. I daily drive my car and think that cam is one of the best all around cams. I wish I knew more on how it would work with a turbo, but I'm sure it won't disapoint.

If you want a smoother idle get that cam on a 114lsa.

I have the 112 lsa version. My idle is pretty lumpy There's no boost bleed at all. My car pulls hard all the way to the 6700 rpm redline and holds a solid 8 lbs of boost on the street. I don't think you'll have any issues with it. The only reason I'm switching is because to me, the low and mid range on this cam is not so great. It does scream up top tho!

I ran this cam with a TC unit and it screamed up top but low/mid it was a little laggy with the stock 3.23 rear and stall. If it was in there and I wasn't going for anything other than fun I would keep it but if not I would definitely get a turbo cam more suited to the needs.

I like the way the cam pulls now in the Vette but I have heard it's not turbo friendly.

I ran a torquer v2 briefly in a car that came with the cam. Paired with a tc78 on fairly low boost 7-8 psi. Results were ok, made just under 500 whp through a 4l80 unlocked but like mentioned I would go with something else if its in the cards.
