What kind of turbos? And that cam looks better suited for turbos than supercharged. A typical supercharger cam has more exh duration than intake to help clear all exhaust gas from the cyl. Unless those heads have an extremely efficient exh port/flow Id expect to see about 6-12 degrees more on the exh side for a blower app.


If the turbos have a good flowing turbine of appropriate size that cam should do ok, may not be optimal but will work. More info on the engine/setup. drag, street, auto etc.

Post the valve timing events if you have them. EVO, EVC, IVO, IVC

Turbos are Ball Bearing GT35R's .82 A/R. I chose these turbos because I want quick spool over max top end power. This is a street car that will see the strip a few times I'm sure with an auto trans. I don't have the valve timing events. Thanks man I appreciate the help.

Few more specs
Holley Hi-ram intake
90mm DBW TB
FLP Level 5 4L65E Transmission
