A stock TPI is generally good for 4500 rpm max power.  If your cam peaks
higher than that, I'd consider a different style intake.  Larger amounts
of valve overlap can make it difficult to tune a speed density system. 
$850 is a very high price for a tpi system.  I'm not so sure you've found
a deal there.
