Turbo vs CID How do you match a Turbo to CID and a specific Cam?
Are there any BIG no-nos' in Dur,Lif,LSA and ICL to Turbo Engine?
Is there a good formula for guidance and what about spool-up?

Honestly the work you have to put into figuring out a turbo cam is a pain in the nuts... I do a few now and then and the whole time you just struggle with the exhaust port, intake port and cylinder pressure thru the crank cycle. The cam is a small part of it, the turbo sizing to the cubes is a much better discussion. I don't always agree that more exhaust duration is a big problem on a turbo motor, it's just where you put it. Anyways, thats enough from me.
