If the cams are a straight swop it suggests they are just higher lift than standard which means they shouldn't need uprated valve springs.
As for "mate from citroen is sayign once car is cammed and mapped it wont run properly without uprated springs ", it won't run properly at all so you'll not get as far as remapping it.
