Default Cam Question

I have a Hot Cam and was wanting to install this soon as my last car payment is this month. My question is would this cam be okay if I have plans to supercharge later? Would like to get the most out of the cam and 2 set of 243 heads before getting a supercharger on there. I figure that would creat the most power in the end. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you.

The hot cam should be called the barely warm cam..why don't you go ahead and get a real cam instead..

The lsa on the hotcam is 112, probably not ideal. I'm no expert, but I thought a low lsa cam would bleed off boost. I'm sure there is more to it than that, but wouldn't you rather go for a custom ground turbo cam if thats your goal?

Well I don't know? Anyone on here ever try to drop a cam and heads and then a supercharger? If so, thats what I would like to do. Keep in mind its a daily driver.
