A custom grind will yield more power, but at a higher cost.

Expect $350 at the absolute lowest.

Its a very popular blower cam, but still is a generic grind. If you're looking for maximum performance, a custom grind that matches your mods will be best

Not saying the GT2-3 is bad, many people run it and make great power.

I cannot seem to remember the guys name on here, but IIRC he can get custom grind ISKY cams that are supposed to be great for turbo applications.
