Forced induction is a totally different ball game. With N/A motors you want the cams open as long as possible, getting as much air into the motor as you can. If that means having a bit of overlap to get maximum power, then so be it. The car will run rough at idle, etc, but will make good top-end. The big problem with overlap and forced induction motors is that the air will just flow right through the motor, since it's under pressure. > Is the Schrick combo the way to go?
