Default BD 14 15 or 16

I have been advised to change my current BD10 inlet cam to one with a higher lift and duration. But i cant decide which one to go with... I really dont want the car to be too laggy, and the target is around 420+ hp.
Danny says BD16 atleast, but are there any other opinions about this? I mean if a BD14 or 15 can do the job, what would the advantages really be to go for bigger profile?

My setup is:

6 Long studded 200 block
91,3mm shorter wössner pistons with valve cut outs and 8:1 cr
Longer (136 mm) H-beam rods with arp bolts
Fully balanced bottom end
Organic sachs cluth (rated to 520 NM)
Ported head + inlet trumpets
10 mm plenumspacer
Double valve springs
Standard exhaust cam
Vernier pulleys
2wd exhaust manifold
GT3071 turbo .82 ex (thank you for the swap Danny)
071 plugs
Siemens 83s
044 pump
MSD chip
RS500 style intercooler
Samco hoses
ITG foam filter
3" mongoose
E-boost street boostcontroller

Sometime in the future i will get a live map for sure, but until then i just have to settle for a special calibratet chip (im thinking MSD)

BD16 Inlet for that spec will work well. The BD10 is costing you power.
Can buy them online from us here:

BD10 are not much use on anything, hardly any more aggressive than std.

I bought my clutch in my tuners shop in denmark, and it was a complete clutch kit including cover and release bearing.

It is on their web page, but it does not say which car it is for, so you have to contact them for details. Can't remember the number on the one i got.

ive heard for response that bd14 inlet and standard exh work realy well but with your spec you want it to pull up top too...

if danny says bd16 then thats proberly the ones to go for.....

i wouldnt worry about lag to much as even with lair cams the gt series turbos are no more laggy than a t34 but with 100hp extra....
