Cam looks a little too big for turbo apps. It has +4° of overlap which can kill the boost/allow reversion. A wider LSA with a negative overlap is generally recommended. For instance a 224/114 cam has a -4° overlap. A lot of folks who know say use the Z06 cam for good results on the cheap. I can't remember the exact specs, but it's like 206 to 210 on 114 to 115. Slightly different year-to-year. That's a very general remark. Check with the turbo gurus for a better read.

BTW, I read that the AFR 225 were designed for larger displacements, and the 205's were more for the stock displacement. Here again, check it out before you take my word alone. HTH
