The cams I have are crane 14s. I probably wont go bigger on the turbo because of the DP nitrous. Will these cams be a good match for my application? I probably wont be shifting over 6800 rpms.
what is your power band, i would think 14's would be fine but if you want a little more up top but less tq go to 16's . but with the 50trims quick spool this could hurt you

Agree...

The purpose of ignition advance is to account for the lag time following spark ignition for combustion pressure to peak at 15 degrees AFTER TOP DEAD CENTER. A little fyi !
those 14's with the split duration is good for spool on a journal bearing 50. they are good cam's all around once dialed in.. like nutz said bigger cam more top end,but you sacrafice tq down low.

its a question of backpressure VS. overlap, if you are pushing a turbine to the limits the backpressure will allow exhaust charge to seap back into the intake charge with more overlap lowering the overall VE untill the velocity (energy behid the intake charge) will over come the back pressure in higher RPM's
