For comparison's sake, I'm running TW-555 Wood cams in my stock compression 96" and it runs just fine. I'm sorta planning on a 107 down the road, but I wanted do to cams this summer, and I wanted cams that work with my current setup. I realize this was a compromise, but decided to go ahead with the midrange 555s.
Bottom end feels about the same as it did when I was Stage 1 (FM 2-1-2 headpipe, 4" Jackpots, Ness Inverted Sucker, PC-V). The midrange and top end are much stronger and the bike runs great, it pulls cleanly to my 6K rev limit.
Before I purchased the cams, I spoke with both Fuel Moto and Bobby Wood regarding my cam choice and they both suggested the 555s for my riding style, which consists 1-up cruising the coast, canyons, and backroads, with some freeway and city mixed in. I like to twist the throttle and don't mind running it out in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears.
Given that the 777s are a little bigger, I'd venture to guess (and this is just a guess) that you'd see similar results with a 103. If I were you, I'd do some in-depth research though before making a commitment.
Some will disagree with me, but the 555s work so well in my 96 for my riding style that I'd be happy with my choice even if I never did go to a 107. And I know that I would not be happy with a torque cam that ran out of steam at or before 5000rpm. But this would probably not be the case for someone who rides long distances 2-up on a loaded Ultra.
