Default Anyone running the Speedtek W1 cam?

I am building a 200 shot direct port nitrous over the winter months and would like to install a cam that would work well with the nitrous but also be a good NA cam. I've read that this cam builds serious cylinder pressure on the juice but can't find any info on it running NA. The specs are 578i 589e lift 227i 234e @50 duration on a 116lsa. I like the fact that it's on a 116lsa as I don't want a cam that thumps and is real lopey. I would rather have a decent size cam that is idles relatively smooth has a wide powerband and can put me near 400rwhp with the mods in sig and stock heads. I believe this would be a great nitrous cam but was wondering how it would be as a daily driver in an M6 car.

I would think it would be not bad, especially advanced ~6 degrees to get the exhaust valve open sooner to dump all that extra gas. With a 200 shot though, to get the best results on the juice, I believe you could use more like 12-15 degrees more exhaust than intake duration, rather than just 7.
