I would go with a different cam, toda vtc killers are not the greatest if you plan on drag racing. These cams require high rev to make power, they were designed for road racing because of the midrange-topend.

With 12:1 you could run skunk pro's, best bang for the buck and are proven.

You want to have an "insane VTEC" for reasons I don't understand as VTEC should be a smooth transition, but you say that you want VTEC killer cams, which essentially makes your engine in VTEC all the time. Look through the dyno thread stickied in the all motor forum and you will see builds similar to yours and then you can make a decision on what cam you should get and/or if you decide that you need higher compression pistons.
