Question Turbo cam?

Good morning everyone. I’ve seen a few threads about blower cams, but is there such a thing as a turbo cam? I haven’t heard a whole lot of discussion about them if there is such a thing. I'm not looking for the sound, just the HP gains.
Also, I know that most superchargers have their own CAI, some CAI’s are compatible with certain supers. Are there specific CAIs for a turbo set up or is it even necessary? I’m still trying to learn about how a TT kit works, but doesn’t the exhaust spin the turbines and then the power generated from the turbines feeds back to the engine, right? So, does the piping for the turbo kit take up the spot where the CAI would go? I haven’t seen too many pictures of a TT kit from under the hood. I’m just trying to figure out any other additional parts that I can add to gain HP/TQ

Blower cam = forced induction cam. Doesn't matter if it's a SC or turbo.

Go into the proper section to see pics. The top mounted turbo is mounted where the CAI would sit and the filter goes down below it. Bottom mounted twins have their filters very close to the turbos. GMT mounts theirs in the front clip, ahead of the tires.
