Brian Crower's 280 or 272? Stock IX Turbo

Here is the setup that I am planning to go with:

Ported intake manifold and exhaust manifold
Buschur Race Front Mount
Megan o2 housing
3' turboback
All bolt ons...........

Basically you get the point. This will be tuned with E85 @ 28 psi on the stock IX turbo. The question is should I get the 280's or 272's? I have looked at the s1 and cossie cams already and have decided to go with bc because of the price. I will be trying to hit 400whp with this setup. What do you guys think? Is the 280 and springs/retainers worth it?
