Torquer V2 specs: 232/234 .595/.598 113 LSA

curious if this cam will be ok with using a turbo at 6 lbs.

i am debating to put the stock cam back in, using this one, or getting a FI cam.

That would put you at +3.5* of overlap. For turbo, ideally you want to be -8 to +2. It's not optimal but you should be fine.

I was quoted a 230/234 .590/.592 114+2 for a turbo kit pushing 15lbs. Then again, I was also quoted a 218/218 .563/.563 115 by the same company the very next day, lol.

If you go by Speed Inc's turbo cam reccommendations, they like a 225/225 .583/.583 113. That yields -.5* of overlap.

On the other hand, Lingenfelter has defenitely done their research too and they like high exhaust durations. Their two FI cams are the:
GT2-3: 207/220 .571/.578 118.5LSA = -11.75* overlap
GT7: 208/230 .554/.546 -121LSA = -11.5* overlap
But keep in mind these are 'FI' cams, not 'turbo' cams. Those high exhaust durations are usually meant for blower applications.
