Default Crane #18 cams

ok well someday i want to get a race ported head and crane #18 cams.. but do i have to get Crane #14 cams for a turbo when i get one.. cuz i dont want to buy the #18's then when i get a turbo have to buy new cams.... what disadvantages will i see from using the Crane 18's in stead of the 14s with the turbo

Crane 14's
This cam profile features our unique “Split Duration” lobe profile design (exhaust duration is less than intake duration). “Spools” turbo faster for quicker boost and response. Reduces turbo “lag-time”. Strong upper mid-range and top-end HP when turbo boost is applied. For Max HP and RPM use intercooler and low restriction intake and exhaust systems. RPM range: 1,500 - 6,800

the #14's are made to work great with a turbo...the 18's are better for N/A applications...

with some #14's you will have a bit of a rough idle and with #18's the car will hardly want to idle at all...so you will probally wanna plan on getting an AFC along with the cams
