Default Turbo cam choice?

What cam should i be looking at for a either fordged 410 or 427 build it will be a mostly street car that will see some track time. Turbo size in the area of
91mm shooting for around 1000rwhp! I know the NA/turbo cams differ just dont know the details of what i should look for.

I guess the custom ground cams are the best option compared to off the shelf cams when doing a turbo?

If you want the most out of your setup yes.

Futral is also good. I just threw Pat G out there. Just any custom cam will be better that OTS.
