Default Turbo Cams for all out drag racing

Currently building a drag race only Benson sleaved B18C with Arias pistons and 5mm longer than stock Crower rods. I plan to boost at least 30lbs and shooting for 650-700 WHP. I know the question has been beat to death, but I don't know which cams to run. I'm thinking ITR cams with the overlap dialed out, but does anyone know if any manufacturers are researching turbo cam design? I don't want a reground cam but something with a little more lift and a little less duration. I called Crower and they told me to run stock cams but there must be something or someone better. Any ideas or experience would be appreciated.

I'm actually pretty sure that most of the race cars run stock cams.

hmm, that actually wouldnt surprise me if that were true. Well, let me rephrase that. Start out with stock cams and see what it gets you.

Building it myself. I've built a lot of V-8's in the old days but this is my first Honda. I've been doing a lot of research and reading. Currently have a CRX (w/B18C) running 11.50's but it is stock (except for turbo, valve springs and DFI). Hope to see the 9's at the end of this project.

Good job!!

I am also building a 600 plus hp motor. I'm probably going to use my stock Prelude cams though.
