Hi Again ... Thanks regardless for your support Jake ...
lolz ... I think there should be a SAE certification a cam manufacturer should be able to stamp on their cams 'before' slapping a magical number on them and shuffling them out the door.
From my turbo research overlap is 'the' killer in getting the most out of a forced induction motor. So I put down a small list of potential cams, and saw this:
GSC S1s are Intake 11mm and Exhaust 10.5mm lift on a 268 lobe. So that supported the idea of a smaller Exhaust lift in order to promote a little more low end flow to get the turbo spooled. Turbo spooled = usable power now.
Cosworth M1s are 10.2mm Intake and Exhaust on a 268 lobe.

And yeah, it's unfortunate I never put my cams in, or we would have at least one person who went from TBE/tune to TBE/cams/tune.
Hey, my name is Jake, and I have a problem.

Color is such a hard personal choice. 
I'm not convinced that powder coating really improves the color and look of the wheel. Unless I'm mistaken powder coating costs extra?
However I have seen some really good wheels done with a nice pre-packaged automotive paint followed up by a low-gloss satin clear - durable stuff. The other good news is if you ever scrape your wheel set, you can play some buff games, and repaint as a touch up.
What was your car color again?
