negative they are different...with a turbo cam you want the right abount of overlap so that you dont bleed off too much boost but at the same time spool the turbo fast. I personaly don't know much about it but you can check out some info about turbo cams at

down near the bottom there is info on turbo cams

I have the MS3 with the STS on a T67. Not the choice cam for FI but there are no problems here.
