Post Turbo cams?

Does anyone know of a cam manufacturer that makes any sort of turbo grinds for Mustangs besides a custom cam? I want something with a similar profile to the stock cam (around 115-116 LSA, pretty low duration) but with higher lift. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Some do but blower cams generally have way too much duration. I want the short duration on the exhaust to build up pressure and push the turbo quicker. Most people I've talked to who used something like an F303 cam actually turn better times with stock cams because of the higher LSA and less duration.

uhh, no it's a totally different theory.
the stock cam w/1.7's works great. more than a few people running in the 10's with it.
