Default I need help with cam selection please

I was looking at the speed inc Tu1 cam but now Im thinking I want something more agressive. Can you reccomend me a cam. I would like it a little choppy if possible. my set up is
single mp 70mm t4 turbo
stock cube 2001 ls1 and bottomend
yank 3200 stall
I dont want anything so big that it affects the spool time as this is a street only vehicle and would like the power range more in the mid. Im looking for around 500-550 rwhp and this is in a 1970 c10 truck. thanks

If you want something with a nice choppy idle, our forced induction camshaft will work well for you. http://shop.brutespeed.com/Comp-Brut...n-Camshaft.htm Back at the old shop we used this same profile on a twin turbo Corvette that worked out very well. Bob

Isky 218/.570/112lsa. That cam spools great, has a nice little chop at idle, and isn't too big to make power in the range of that turbo. I ran it for a short time but went with the 215/114 lsa for a smoother idle.
