Default Comp 918's with .571 lift

I already posted this in internal engine but wanted the turbo guru's opinions.I am getting a new cam for my turbo ls1 and the lift will be somewhat like .571/.558

My question is, will this be ok for comp 918's even though they are rated to .600 lift? Or should I spend the additonal $150 and get patriot duals?

running a turbo I would get the patriot duals just for piece of mind, but I have the 918's with a similiar cam on a N/A setup and no problems
