Default Spec out my cam

Ok so here's what I want....
-Cam should have decent midrange and great top end for drag racing
-Low end decent with minimal surging
-Possibly a standard or equal split for N20
-Cam should make peak power above 6000 but dont wanna spin motor insanely
-Decent Idle when cutout closed, opened you can hear the wonderful sounds
-Emissions a slight concern.....possibly not a concern

So Im leaning towards something like a FM4 on a 112 but am concerned that this cam peaks a little too low (6000). Is this a good thing? How can I push the powerband slighly up?

Im thinking 112 because I like to drag race the car and this is when i'll need the hp. I also don't buy into the 114 for n20 thing...better midrange for the juice? don't make sense to me.

Let me know what you guys think

A 224 duration on 112 cam is probably the most that will pass emissions for sure. Install it straight up with no advance to get the peak power higher.
