I would talk to Jose at ForcedInductions.com. He seems to be the most knowledgeable around here.

264/260 solid roller on a 115lsa with a bigger turbo sounds like a plan!

I plugged some #'s ito a engine sim. software and the +4 versus the 0 creates a little more low speed tq, but not a significant amount.

The actual #'s may not be 100% accurate (like predicting the actual hp/tq), but the software lets you plot the curves and see how changing cam specs affects the curve. Advancing the cam timing improves low end.
