Hi all I'm after getting a camshaft for my eaton G40 but what would be the best one?? The charger will have,
15% smaller pulley,
4 branch,


turbo camshaft .... http://www.bar-tek-tuning.com/cgi-bin/cosmoshop/lshop.cgi?action=showdetail&artnum=2140059&wkid=16986&ls=en&nocache=1289516774-17103

or normal sport camshaft .... http://www.bar-tek-tuning.com/lshop,showdetail,16986,en,1289516883-17135,1107452820.nockenwellenvw.nockenwellenvwg40,2140004,2,Tshowrub--1107452820.nockenwellenvw.nockenwellenvwg40,.htm

Its all about getting the powerband in the right place to suit your eaton. Not sure what the PSD ones where I believe they were custom made - personally i cant say for a fact if they were/ wernt.
Think the normal sports will be better for a charger than the turbo cam.
What power is it currently? and what boost will it run without the belt slip if you know?
