Default Best camshaft for this combo?

If you had to choose a camshaft from http://www.lgmotorsports.com
Which one would you choose?
# G2 Cam 224/224 Duration & 580/580 Lift.
# G5 Cam 224/230 Duration & 581/572Lift.
# G5-X1 228/232 Duration & 588/574 Lift.
# G5-X2 232/240 Duration & 595/608 Lift.
# G5-X3 2??/2?? Duration & 600/610 Lift.
It will be for a CTS-V with Headers back exhaust, intake and Magnacharger intercooled system. I am looking for something streetable that will make the most power.

Thanks,
Derek

FWIW they also have an X4. Since your gona have a magnacharger I would look into the G5XB cam. Its aimed at forced induction in comparison to the others that are N/A cams.

Exactly, you don't really want a tighter lobe seperation with FI.
