You can pretty much use any cam with turbo apps though, within reason.

I have seen both single pattern and split patterns both work well with turbo apps.
Obviously most cams would work decent with a turbo, and each setup has its individual needs, however the most popular trend lately has been turbo cams on a single duration. The Isky cams spec'd by stock48, 212 and 218 duration's have been pretty popular and have definitely proven themselves. Also take a look at Speed Inc's line of turbo cams, each of which are on a single duration. Alternatively, you can look at the LS6 cam as an example of a split cam that performs great on turbo setups. There are many options that would work well but personally I would choose from these. Turbo's don't need big durations to do their job well...

Yea I'm still running the stock cam. I had convinced myself to go with the LS6 cam, but I am really considering the Isky 112. Funds permitting it will probably be the Isky when it comes time. I won't be going with either until I get a Tru Trac installed tho lol

Haha yeah Sounds like a good idea. I have been recommending the Isky cams quite a bit myself here lately too. Id do the isky one if you wanted to hear the lope sound, as the LS6 sounds stock.
