Ford 6.9 Reground cam?

Someone was talking about a reground cam for a ford 6.9. They said it will increase your torque, obviously...but can i get one reground or do i have to find someone who makes them...Also, id like to make around 400 lb ft of torque. What turbo would be a good idea to run on that engine since it has such high compression already?

I think custom grind cam might be a better description than reground cam.
