Pulled my motor for some freshening and thinking roller. 2802 in there now and very underwhelming in my opinion. How do you think the old faithful would fair under low boost (10-15psi) but maybe cut on a 114-115 instead of 112?

Or stump puller which is already on a 114. I like the high lift but moderate duration.

Moderate Overlap (gets better (less) with wider lobe separation) and higher lift seem to work well. The turbo always has pressure in front of the Turbo exhaust inlet so big overlap/big exhaust durations tend to hurt things vs help things.

Some even have larger intake duration vs exhaust duration on higher boost applications.

That being said, people have gone fast with almost factory design camshafts.

Talk to the guy with the Triumph with the bog single turbo. He might have some wisdom on some earlier street turbo builds.
