Default rs turbo camshaft

so with so many camshafts out performance wise, piper and kent, what about this as a standard cam would it be the right cam for a standard rs turbo cam replacement?

Aside from Ford (which are NLA last I checked) Newman are the only brand I will use these days, even then I will not warranty them as I've had failures.
Anything from ebay or a motor factors will be cheaply made using poor material, you might be lucky and get a good one or you might end up with a sump full of metal!
