As niterunner stated you would need to fix the FAST first. Personally I would sell the FAST and throw on an LS6 intake, with FI you shouldn't see a difference.
whats the LSA on that 237/242, .603"/.609" cam?

Might as well order a cam for a blown application while you're ordering a new intake.

The cam you have now is more suited to a procharger than a turbo. It has a lot of overlap either way.
