Default Valvetrain Questions

I can't decide what valvetrain products to use, I've seen omni-power, Supertech, Portflow, Etc..... I've seen many people using all sorts and not having problems w/ them so I'm stuck with what should I buy?

Another decision I have to make are the cams I'm going to use. I looking to suite a high boost application and have seen oem gsr and type-r cams getting the job done for 500hp cars (dsport has one if their latest issue using gsr cams)

I have Skunk2 (anyone remember them?) springs and retainers, no problems at all. I have heard nothing but good things about Omni , Portflow and Rocket. If they were availible when I bought mine I would have purchased one of those instead, as they're cheaper for what is purported to be a better product.

You can't really go wrong with any of them.

What are high hp peeps using for cams? I've seen type-r and gsr cams on turbo apps. going high hp w/o too many problems

I was also thinking of getting a full supertec valvetrain after a little studying, they seem to get the job done on some pretty quick cars (exospeed)
