Default Cam question

Ok this is my question I got a stock 03 4.8 setup with a small 216/220 .525/.532 114lsa but Im in the middle turbo charging my truck and I kept this cam in but a buddy of mine has a custom grind 224/232 .581/595 114lsa cam that he had in his sc 4.8 but now he is going with a cammed 6.0 so he is letting me swap Out Cams if it will help me make more power than what I got in it now what y'all think

It's bigger than I'd want to fool with in a 4.8L. The big split isn't necessary in a turbo app either. Keep what you have or get one ground for your specific rig.

Stick with the cam you have. It's plenty for a turbo 4.8l and you'll just lose bottom end with the 224/232.
