turbo cams are completely backwards from a NA or blower cam, the exhaust duration is normally quite a bit smaller than the intake, i cant give you exact specs but i know that much, sorry...<b>Black</b> 1998 Pontiac <i>Firebird</i> A-4 swap<br />271.4rwhp/259.4rwtq NA<br />13.30@102.44 <br /><a href=\"http://www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98\" target=\"_blank\">www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98</a>

You can use a split duration cam with intake with higher duration or you can have intake/exhaust at the same duration. I think the specs above would work really nice. I dont think you should go with a huge cam just for tuning reasons and bad tuning with a turbo would be hard to fix. Keep it small.
How much boost do you plan on running?
