degreeing the cams is important on any combo, FI or n/a. Advancing the intake cams on a turbo combo will result in more preboost power, and quicker spooiling, and more peak power.are the gears recommended even though I plan to turbo charge?
Why would you not want to degree them? Why install parts that will boost power but not get the most out of them by not degreeing?I'm still on the fence about the cam install. I have a set of 96 cams sitting on the floor in the garage. The install is straight forward, I just don't want to mess with degreeing them.

Why wouldn't they be? You're still gonna want to degree the cams with or without the turbo.

I was quoted 1800.00 for labor :shrug:
Not true at all, you can advance the cobra intake cams to a 106cl before it affects peak hp. The highest hp stock cammed/intake'd combo made 390rwhp with the cams at 106/118. The problem with not degreeing them is that you can end up with one cam at 112 and the other at 119 which absolutely kills power. I can't see doing all this work and not wanting to get the maximum benefit.

Using that 106/118 and using the stock Ported/Polished intake would it keep the same peak power RPM and fatten up the lower and mid? Also using this same 96-98 106/118 combo with 04 P&P Mach1 intake 10-11.1 CPR teksid with Ported 04 heads drivability should be awesome and maybe even a 1K rwhp once my turbos are picked out if i'm lucky.
