Default a different cam question, maybe...

im gonna do a cam swap soon, and dont have much cash to drop on a lot of other mods right now, so im only doing a cam. ya ya i know but its happenin. i just would like to know what specific cam would be a nice choppy idle with some added power, and good streetablility, but will do well with a turbo set up, which will come soon after. please be specific and only post if you KNOW that it would make a good turbo cam. i plan to take this advise very seriously, so no BS'ers and he said she said stories.

get a custom grind. call wherever you are ordering from and tell them your goals and they should be able to custom grind it to what you need.

there is no exact cam you need, a lot of it is preference.

your gonna get A LOT of different suggestions.

what all are you planning in the future? what are your goals for it? what kind of turbo setup? what kind of car? transmission? gearing? need details.
