I would imagine it would make some great power, even better if you lowered your compression.

There are too many variables in your setup to know how well the turbo will work on your car.

If you are higher compresison than stock you won't be able to run much boost. If your cam has tons of overlap you'll bleed off lots of boost as well. So HP gains will be there but it's not the optimum setup..

Now if your compression is stock and your cam has minimal overlap then your gains from the turbo will be better.

Either way find a great tuner and life will be much easier.
