The metro unit is know to give good results.

I've heard the MG Metro cam produces very good results when dealing with forced induction.

well the MG cam is better than the standard one,

 

the KC800 could be interesting, it dosent have the longer exhaust duration that a turbo likes, but it is on a 110 LCA which is good for turbo's.

 

the main thing I would be looking at is which cam is in best condition.
