Default TSP H/C package

I tried to do a search on this but it would not work for me so please bare with me. I am about to pull the trigger on a H/C package from TSP and would like some input. I know the PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads are good so lets review the cam choice. I am looking to get the Torquer V.3. How streetable is this cam? Powerwise does it hit low or high in the rpm range? Power output? Forgive me I am pretty ignorant when it comes to cams. I am looking for at least 400 to 420 rwhp through a M6, is this possible with this setup? Thanks for the help.

I made 443.00/420.99 and with a 75 shot I made 519.21/532.97. I plan to spray 150. I havent driven it yet because my qtp electric opener was stuck closed, so right after it got tuned, my car was brought straight back to the shop. these numbers are actually lower than what it should because the qtp electric opener was stuck closed. That cause my exhaust to reroute through the muffler. That really restricted my exhaust flow because I have Borlas and its designed to flow straight out, so there was restriction on the chart. How much, I dont know. It could be from 5hp to 15 and up hp.

I dont know if it makes a difference but I have spintech mufflers, they are a pretty straight through design. Sounds like it going to be a fun street setup.
