15% smaller pulley,
4 branch,

or normal sport camshaft .... http://www.bar-tek-tuning.com/lshop,showdetail,16986,en,1289516883-17135,1107452820.nockenwellenvw.nockenwellenvwg40,2140004,2,Tshowrub--1107452820.nockenwellenvw.nockenwellenvwg40,.htm

Its all about getting the powerband in the right place to suit your eaton. Not sure what the PSD ones where I believe they were custom made - personally i cant say for a fact if they were/ wernt.
Think the normal sports will be better for a charger than the turbo cam.
What power is it currently? and what boost will it run without the belt slip if you know?
