I had this same problem. Gude and Delta do regrinds of the stock cam and that is what i would recommend. From what i have seen the Delta 272 is the best and it costs about $100 shipped back to you.

delta also makes a stage 2 and 3 regrind for the y7 as well but there between $200-$350. The delta 272 is an awesome cam that makes power to about 7K

If you plan on turboing i would shy away from the mini me and just build and boost your stock y7. I have never heard of colt cams so im not much help there.
