I hate to be the first to say this but SEARCH. Get an understanding of what you need and then ask specific questions.

To gauge how much you have searched tell us what you KNOW about the turbo crank?

OK, I'll be second....

What do you mean by the "rally CR too"

If you're thinking turbo, you should be thinking what CR you need for the boost your thinking of ????

EDIT - just realised my english here is appalling... what I meant was if it's been built with a suitable CR for that spec cam, it could well have had the CR raised.

If you're thinking turbo now, as a generalisation, CRs would normally need to be lowered but, more to the point, you need to think ahead - what level of boost do you intend to use - then choose the CR accordingly.
