So if you experienced boost creep then why was sleeperZ limited to 11psi with his huge packpressure??

From an earlier part of the discussion. I did put three of the cams through Desktop Dyno to get some results. I don't have the exact numbers with me but they are at home and I'm at work.

Cam 1: 212/226 112lsa
Cam 2: 221/221 114lsa all cams have about a .54 lift
Cam 3: 230/231 112lsa

Cam 1 and cam 2 gave very similar outputs through the whole range and Cam 3 gave 50 some more horsepower in certain areas of the curve (high rpm 6500+). But as the valve overlap would be too much for my setup Cam 3 is out and I already own Cam 1. So I guess that's it for my cam decision.

I can imagine desktop dyno even being remotely accurate for a turbo aplication.. as others have noted, very few people understand turbo cam selection, and even those(major companies even) I dont think REALLY know what is going on.

I would try calling up cam motion to see what they suggest. I have bought a few cams from them. I have been happy thus far.
