Default how about this cam for a twin turbo setup

I am looking into a cam for a twin turbo 403 LS2 engint with 2 t66 turbontics turbos
the engine will have AFR 225 heads/8.5to1 compression/LS6 intake/
I am looking at a 240/248 at .50 with .609/.614 lift on a 116 LSA
or a 234/234 @.50 with .591/.591 with a 115LSA
this is on a 90% street/10% strip car with a 6 speed for now but may have a auto later
it has a 3.50 gear 9 inch rear and full weight + turbo kit + rollbar + etc etc
looking for 15 + PSI boost

Smaller is NOT better in this case. BUT I would NOT run the bigger one either. You will need a larger intake vice exhaust - i.e. 248/240 614/609 115... Me personally, I would call W2W, Speed or Cam Motion to get their advise on a new cam. You are going through all that expense, a couple hundred more will be worth it. (I have a 408, with a Cam Motion cam of 24x/24x, 64x/61x 115LSA. It is very streetable, and not to bad at the track.
